CLOSED Review and Giveaway! 'Right on the Money' by Pat Robertson

From the publisher:

You know that Pat Robertson is a world-famous televangelist, but did you know that he's also an expert in financial matters? In his weekly broadcast segment, "Money Monday", Dr. Robertson answers viewers' questions about all things financial. His deep knowledge of finance, based on sound economic - and Biblical - principles, has made him a "go to" resource for hundreds of thousands of CBN viewers.

Now he has written a book that is accessible to everyone and provides answers people desperately need in today's tough times.

Among the topics he addresses are how to:

• Create a healthy financial plan
• Devise spending strategies to help you live within your budget
• Identify areas where your money can grow
• Build a nestegg
• Maximize your tax savings
• Cut costs
• Diminish your debt
• Invest wisely
• Make prudent financial decisions
• Plan for the future
• Enjoy peace of mind and God's financial protection

RIGHT ON THE MONEY also includes a financial glossary, worksheets and a special section of the most frequently asked questions & answers about keeping what you have and growing your personal net worth.

My review:
This book is a very simple finance book. I found myself skimming parts, because it was mostly review for me (I have an MBA). I did not agree with all his advice, especially about debt, credit card usage and tithing before all other expenses, and would advice readers also review other sources for financial advice.

There was good basic information on investing and retirement accounts. I felt this was the best, most informative part of the book. Also, the section on mortgages was great for anyone considering the rent versus buy scenario. Overall, this book is good for anyone who desires basic knowledge about personal finance or more in-depth review of investment options.

Book tour: This review and giveaway is part of an Internet book tour. Check out these other blogs on the tour for their reviews and/or giveaways of this book.

Book Review: 'The Richest Man in Town' by W. Randall Jones

I finished reading 'The Richest Man in Town - The Twelve Commandments of Wealth' by W. Randall Jones just in time to write a review before my giveaway of 5 copies of this book ends this Sunday, 5/24.

This book was excellent and definitely a must read if you want to learn how 'The Richest Men in Town' became so rich. W. Randall Jones surveyed hundreds of self-made millionaires and through their commonalities determined the twelve commandments of wealth, including being your own boss and finding your perfect pitch. He didn't taut quick riches, but instead showed how hard work, ambition and obsession were the catalysts of success for these entrepreneurs.

The second part of the book outlines some lifestyle observations of the 'rich', such as looking the part and having a happy marriage. The last section includes a short bio of each of the millionaires surveyed for the book.

One of the main reasons I really enjoyed this book is because the author illustrated each point with quotes and examples from the millionaires. It was very insightful and inspiring to read. What I really took away from the book is that you have to be passionate, work hard and not be afraid of failure if you want to follow in the footsteps of self made millionaires.

I am giving away 5 copies of 'The Richest Man in Town' by W. Randall Jones here, thanks to Hachette book group. This contest will end Sunday 5/24 at 10 pm, so hurry and enter if you want a chance to win your own copy. You can purchase it now through Amazon here.

Happy Mother's Day!

To all you moms, have a great Mother's Day!

My husband is on a business trip and was able to leave early to visit his family this weekend. So, he is spending mother's day with his mom in Pennsylvania. He did send me an e-card this morning and that was really sweet.

My parents and brother are driving an hour to visit us and we are going to one of our favorite restaurants in Omaha, Bohemian Cafe. We've been going there since I was a baby and I love the svickova and kolaches!

What are your plans for mother's day? Any surprises from the kids or for your own mom?

Here is a picture of my mom and my two little ones taken a few months ago. Thanks for everything mom!

Enter to win 'The Richest Man in Town' by W. Randall Jones here.

CLOSED Giveaway! 'The Richest Man in Town' by W. Randall Jones (5 winners)!

Enter to win: 1 of 5 copies of 'The Richest Man in Town: The Twelve Commandments of Wealth" by W. Randall Jones.

You can read an excerpt from the book here or listen to audio excerpt here. Also, check out The Richest Man in Town website for more information about the book and author.

Description of the book from the publisher:
"Secretly, if not overtly, almost everyone in America desires to become rich: to make it big, to enjoy the fruits of the most successful life imaginable. But unfortunately, most of us don't have a clue how to reach these all too elusive goals. Quite simply, there's no definitive road map for getting there, no proven plan, and certainly very little access to those who have become "the richest man in town."

But now W. Randall Jones, the founder of Worth magazine, is about to change all that. He's traveled to one hundred different towns and cities across the country and interviewed the wealthiest resident in each. No, these are not those folks who inherited their wealth, or happen to be a CEO of a Fortune 500 company. Rather, these are the self-made types who, through hard work and ingenuity, found their own individual paths to financial success.

Remarkably, during his research, Jones found that these successful people were not so different from one another. They all shared many of the same traits and followed what the author calls the Twelve Commandments of Wealth: stay hungry (even when you're successful) . . . you really do learn more from failing than you may think . . . absolutely be your own boss, the sooner the better . . . understand that selling is the key to success . . . where you live doesn't matter . . . never retire, and other, more surprising revelations.

Practical, unique, and inspiring, this book lets you peek inside the living rooms of dozens of America's most successful people-and shows how you, too, can become THE RICHEST MAN IN TOWN."

This book looks so interesting. I can't wait to get my own copy to read and review. You can earn up to 5 entries to snag your very own copy to read too. Make sure to leave a separate comment for each entry. After you enter to win, make sure to also check out Hatchette Book Group's other book giveaways here.
