Title: Basic Stuff Most People Know
Review: I read this book thinking it would have the answers for the people I try to help and provide advice to. The jacket and cover reviews would lead one to assume that this book is workable and doable. The author tells you to evaluate what caused your financial problem, as if you had no idea. Then she tells you to set aside $10 each day to pay down debt, as if you don't know that is $300 per month. Then she tells you to refinance your mortgage or get an equity line of credit, call your credit card companies and ask for a lower interest rate, have a garage sale, and so on. All suggestions any person who desires to get out of debt can learn with a basic search of "get out of debt" on any reasonable internet search engine. Very basic information that most people know.
Is the review positive or negative?
