Negative Positive
Title: Fiction, pure fiction
Review: I live in the same town as Joan Perry and know her personally and was (past tense) a client. The advice she gives in this book is taken from seminars put on by Tony Robbins and his like. There is not an original idea in this other than the literary device of telling it like a series of stories about individual women. Worse yet Ms. Perry does not follow her own counsel. She overspends, depends on men for investment decisions, and still believes in the "white knight" herself. In fact she does not really play a significant role in managing money at Take Charge Financial at all, she hires that function out to a professional money manager, a man! Nothing inherently wrong with that except her premise is that women should learn to make their own decisions. In short this whole book is a fraud! Reads nice but if you think about it she is talking down to us women who really put our money where our mouth is.
Is the review positive or negative?
