5.0 out of 5 stars Scripturally based myth busters!, December 8, 2007

By	Charlotte L. Langford (Durango, Colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book should be required reading for parents and children, teachers and students alike. The twenty four truths in this book, logically shoot down the myths that so many of us hear daily. Myths like, "Money is evil" , " if I can make the payments, I can afford it", "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer" and "Everyone is entitled to a high standard of living".
Taylor uses parables and stories of great men to illustrate his points for an easy and enjoyable read.
Great Testimonials from Stephen Covey, Willim D Danko (the millionaire next door),Richard Paul Evans,Robert G. Allen (Nothing Down), and Lou Holtz.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book on personal finance and faith, May 11, 2009

By	Peter Anderson "onebigswede" (Shakopee, MN, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I got this book as a review copy on my faith and finance blog, and was able to interview the author after reading it. I have to say I was impressed by Cameron Taylor, and the truths he talks about in his book really ring true. As another reviewer mentioned he does some "mythbusting" in the book, talking about myths that we believe that cause us to fail. He goes on to talk about financial truths that can help us to succeed.

Great book, great read, and a great guy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cameron Taylor Needs to Write More Books!, January 27, 2009

By	Joi @ Self Help Daily (Kentucky) - See all my reviews

Does Your Bag Have Holes is the first book I've read written by Cameron Taylor. Halfway through the book, I knew two things for certain: 1. I was in the middle of a absolutely wonderful book. 2. The world would be a much better place if Cameron Taylor wrote more books!

Not only is he a fantastic author, he's a great teacher and motivator. I took countless notes while reading the book and his teachings have had a great impact upon my life. I can truly say I think about money differently than I ever have. Actually, I think about a lot of things differently!

That's the beauty of Does Your Bag Have Holes - Cameron Taylor causes you to think and to reconsider how you view the world. A lot of us pick up bad habits along life's road, habits we don't even realize we're packing around until it's too late. This book will help you to identify any such culprits and show you how to get rid of them once and for all, BEFORE it's too late.

The book also includes an abridged Audio Book for people who spend a great deal of time in their car. I've recommended this book to everyone I know and now would like to recommend it to you!
