( ) It might seem amazing, but the Economides family has raised as many as five kids on as little as $35,000 a year, with homes paid off in nine years and cars paid for with cash. The tips and tricks in this book are excellent and also realistic, making their frugality accessible to the rest of us. The writing style is refreshing, with only a few of the sexist asides that appear in husband-wife books. (For example, in the section about spendthrifts, they suggest separate small accounts for the spendthrift husband and the spendthrift wife, but suggest that only the wife is likely to go over her limit. But examples like that are rare in this book.) They're religious, but not heavy-handed about it. The input from the kids is also refreshing. While a quick and easy read about being thrifty, this is mostly an inspiration book. Most of it deals with being thrifty with a large family, so if you don't have kids, you'll probably find little to take away. Also, many of the tips seem superficial. For instance, they recommend the snowball method (though they don't call it this) for debt reduction. While they explain how to do it (pay off the smallest debt first, then apply whatever you were paying towards that debt towards the next largest, etc), they don't explain why you should use that method over paying off the highest interest debt first. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
