Negative Positive
Title: This book cries out for an editor
Review: The premise of this book is simple: (1) People spend too much money on luxury goods, (2) less wealthy people spend more on luxury goods because super rich people spend a great deal, and (3) we'd all be better off if people spent less on luxury goods and more on helping others. Everything of value in this book might make a short article in a magazine - expanding it into a book makes it mind numbing. Unless you have an extremely high tolerance for reading the same thing over and over, pass on this book.
