Book Reviews of Your Money or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence: Revised and Updated for the 21st Century

Book Review: Recommended
Summary: 4 Stars

This updated take on the classic 1992 book is a fabulous, enriching way to pass the time during the monotonous morning/afternoon commute. Robin's clear, conversational tone makes it very easy to tune in to her message of financial independence and more-sensible consumption. She shares numerous anecdotes, featuring personal experiences and insights as well as those of original co-author Joe Dominguez. (The late Dominguez is a rags-to-riches story in the truest sense of that clich?.) Robin's focus is not so much getting what you want, but wanting what you have and getting more out of it. An easy-to-follow nine-step plan gives listeners a structured program to follow as they seek a better way to turn their finances into a life-enriching force. It probably is a good idea to read the original or revised version of the book, if time permits. As with many audio books, this is a highly abridged version of the hard copy, and a reader probably can glean something from the pages that just isn't in the two-CD version. But for a crash course on financial independence, this audio book is worth a listen or two.

Summary of Your Money or Your Life: 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence: Revised and Updated for the 21st Century

"The seminal guide to the new morality of personal money management" (Los Angeles Times(on the first edition))

In an age of great economic uncertainty when everyone is concerned about money and how they spend what they have, this new edition of the bestselling Your Money or Your Life is an essential read. With updated resources, an easy-to-use index, and anecdotes and examples particularly relevant today-it tells you how to:

. get out of debt and develop savings
. reorder material priorities and live well for less
. resolve inner conflicts between values and lifestyle
. save the planet while saving money
. and much more

In Your Money or Your Life, Vicki Robin shows readers how to gain control of their money and finally begin to make a life, rather than just make a living.
There's a big difference between "making a living" and making a life. Do you spend more than you earn? Does making a living feel more like making a dying? Do you dislike your job but can't afford to leave it? Is money fragmenting your time, your relationships with family and friends? If so, Your Money or Your Life is for you.

From this inspiring book, learn how to

  • get out of debt and develop savings
  • reorder material priorities and live well for less
  • resolve inner conflicts between values and lifestyles
  • convert problems into opportunities to learn new skills
  • attain a wholeness of livelihood and lifestyle
  • save the planet while saving money
  • and much more
