Five Lessons A Millionaire Taught Me For Women (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
Maybe it was because so much of the information was repeated from Evans' first book, "The Five Lessons a Millionaire Taught Me". Maybe it was because I didn't feel like I personally needed the groundwork he laid that women really should be concerned about their financial future (I already am!). I think I liked his first book better and would recommend that one. It must be said, however, that the 5 lessons he presents are good financial advice for anyone, whether you are rich or poor, and it's always good to review them. Based on simple principles of action and responsibility, this book is a quick, but inspiring read. The concepts are down-to-earth: know where your money comes from and where it's going, do your research and ask questions before making purchases, have a positive and active attitude about your finances, etc. I was often reflecting, "Yeah, that's true - I knew that." ...but it outlines the most important aspects of a simple financial strategy in a realistic and non-intimidating way. I appreciate that I finished the book feeling encouraged, rather than overwhelmed, and that there were small but specific steps I could begin doing immediately.This is a wonderful and valuable book for people in any financial situation, and I think it is interesting enough to also be a good read for teen-age or college-age individuals as well.
