Solid financial advice for anyone starting out, or restarting their stalled or failing economic situations.

Nothing new, common sense, don't unless it's free - heeeeeeey.... and there's bonus tip 366 on how to save money.

I read this book on my Kindle. I chose this book because I enjoy reading how other people have gotten out of debt, or walked away from a career they didn't love, etc. My husband and I are on this road as well, and I love to read other people's ideas and thoughts on how they got off one journey they didn't love, and headed in the direction their heart truly wanted to take them.

Mr. Hamm has several different thoughts on changing things about one's life whether it's financial, professional, or personal. I thoroughly enjoyed reading his insight. He is very motivational, and has given me some different ideas on things that I can do, changes that I can make. He has inspired me to do something each day to move towards those changes.

If you are feeling dissatisfied with where you are in life, financially, professionally, or personally, I would strongly reccommend this book to you. It's an easy read with practical ideas!

These 365 tips are organized thematically, in categories such as "appliances," "energy" and "leisure". They all include a big heading and a short description of the tip. Prior to reviewing, I went through them quickly to pick out the ones that I had found either original or described persuasively enough to entice me to try them even though they were something I'd already been aware of. The only one I could find was a sub-tip on transportation, recommending turning off the air conditioning in the car a bit in advance of arriving at destination. So I would say this book is valuable for people who are reading frugality tips for the first time, because there isn't much that's original in there (though I'm not sure there is such a thing as an original frugality tip at this point) and for those who want a quick, handy reference to turn to as an easily organized reminder of things they can implement in their finances to save money.
