This has financial advice and hacks for everyone. I enjoyed how it got straight to the point on each hack and went straight to the next one. There are over 200 hacks. Easy simple ones such as waiting to spend money, so you don’t make impulse purchases. And other long term goals such as ways to improve your investments or saving for retirement.

Money Hacks is a book I requested from NetGalley hoping to pick up some good tips. Did I learn anything useful? Not really; however, I need to qualify that statement by saying I have never been someone who spends beyond my means, and I implement some of the suggested ideas already, under my own initiative. While it may not have had anything to offer me personally, I would still give this book 4 stars, because, if you are someone who struggles to limit spending or has difficulty managing money, this book provides a number of reasonable suggestions, all of which are succinctly explained and easy to follow, so I am sure it would benefit others out there. For none US-based readers, some of the items discussed, especially in later sections, may not be relevant, but it would still be worth reading for the more general tips.

Makes me think of extreme coupon clipping. Has a few helpful suggestions for the ambitious saver. Could use more details on some sections.

There are some really great tips in this book. It brought up things like I never really thought about - like deleting apps to avoid temptation. Will use this as a great reference tool for sure.

I love to read books about saving money because I really respect the people that can do this. Most of these hacks are common sense but all of them will absolutely help you save money if they are geared towards you. Quite a few of them interested me but many of them wouldn’t work for me.

What did I like? I was able to learn a bit with this book, not a huge amount since I read a ton of these books a year but enough to think this book is a gem. Basic budgeting, some simple tricks, and helpful words span this book with over 275 hacks for keeping your money in your wallet.

Would I buy or recommend? This is for beginner budget and savers truly since the majority of the info is not a surprise. A couple of things stood out for me and I plan on trying them so there is stuff in the book that may work. I enjoyed reading it, and I think it’s a helpful read.

I received a copy to read and offer an opinion. Four stars for simple hacks.

This is really a great book. Most hack books are all the same, with no new information. This one actually had useful info. Great book!

Thanks to author,publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book. While I got the book for free,it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.
