I used to love SUCCESS magazine because their articles about current management books, etc. gave me all the important points without having to buy the book. Most of these are 90% filler and 10% useful ideas. I would buy the same sort of publication for money management!!

Great suggestions. Thanks. I often get needlessly bogged down reading these books, yet I have a huge list of these books I want to get to, so your hints are greatly needed for me to keep plugging!

You have also made me add “Your Money or Your Life” to my list.

Not really. The ideas from that book that actually hold water showed up in other books with actual supporting evidence.
