10,001 Ways to Live Large on a Small Budget
Search in google:
Tips for living the good life—in a bad economy—from WiseBread.com. Lawrence Maxted - Library Journal The bloggers at the personal finance site WiseBread.comoffer thousands of ways to spend less while still enjoying life. The frugal living part includes ideas ranging from gourmet cooking on a shoestring to cheap sunburn remedies. There are money-saving tips on travel, entertainment, and most other aspects of life. Some of the advice, though (e.g., 21 uses for beer), seems a bit off point. The book's second half is devoted to personal finance topics like budgeting, credit, housing, and even how to hire and/or fire a financial adviser. Brightly illustrated and offering multiparagraph tips organized into topical sections, this guide, while lacking the coherency of Gregory Karp's The 1-2-3 Money Plan(reviewed above), will give novices quick, simple answers.
