  • Most thinking about money assumes your financial life is separate from the rest of your life, but it is time to put those things back together. We need to account for earning, spending, debt and savings, but also count the time these functions take in your life. A positive relationship with money is reflected in the sense of satisfaction and fulfillment you get from your work, and how it connects you with family, community and planet. Regardless of whether you are in debt or whether you have substantial savings, you can embark on a work/life path where you make a life, and not merely a living.

    This book had a huge impact on my life. It shifted how I viewed trading my time for money and how I began to demand more value for value went I spent money. It inspired me to start saving and investing. My favorite, most memorable part of the book is "the crossover point". It opened my eyes to what was possible. I bought the book in the mid 90s and now less than 25 years later, I am financially independent at the age of 55.

    Well, she just said "I'm not talking about poverty, I'm talking about most normal people." Does she have any idea how many of us that leaves out? Because, you know, if you're living in poverty it must be because you're lazy and/or stupid. Great. No help or answers for some of us on how to get out of the trap we're in. We don't HAVE discretionary spending money. So I guess your 9 steps are just like every other "program" that's supposed to help. It helps people who already have money - big surprise.

      I disagree. There is a cost to consumerism, whether it be to you as a person or to the planet. Mindless consumption comes at a significant cost to our life energy and the environment. More is not better.
