I was given a copy of Crystal Paine’s new book The Money Saving Mom’s Budget: Slash Your Spending, Pay Down Your Debt, Streamline Your Life, and Save Thousands a Year that was released on 1/10/12 . I thought that it would go over the basic ‘dave ramsey’ steps on how you pay down debt, save as much as you can, etc etc.
Honestly, this book was a whole new take on dealing with your finances. It was realistic and open to everyone. This book taught me several things, not just about budgeting, but about the importance of goals and sacrifice. You gain a basic understanding of how you can start saving (literally, like in a savings account) money within the first few pages, no matter what your financial situation is. Then it goes on to tell you the steps you need to take in order to achieve financial freedom. It even talks about using coupons, and how to get started or improve your skills in that area. It has worksheets, a list of about every question you can think of and a logical answer. Even an appendix that talks about things like “tips for having a successful garage sale” and more
There is something in this book for everyone and you will learn from it and reference it over and over, because Crystal knows what she is talking about. She has been there and speaks from her own personal experiences. If you are looking for a way to take control of your finances and get things under control, this is a great resource for you and one you swill not regret having on hand.
I totally recommend this book to everyone, even if you think you have your budgeting and finances under control, I bet you will take something away from this book! Ordering one is easy!
