A great read about consumerism that comes with a 30 day challenge to kickstart a change of habit. While I already started downsizing and reorganizing before picking this up, I really enjoyed this. Each chapter was insightful and packed with information that was delivered in a delicate and humorous, but still informative way. One thing that was a personal annoyance for me is when slang is spelled out like "wanna" instead of "want to" and things like that, but I do get it was probably done in a way to make the information in the book more approachable and to make it seem more like a conversation between the reader and Piper. That's really my only complaint. I think some could get a little bogged down by some of the information, but the way it's set up is that you CAN skip some of that if you want to and just do the challenge. I personally found the information and research presented was informative and important.

I received this book in exchange for an honest review of this book.
Open your eyes we have been tricked into spending.
This book will help you move away from over spending and take control of your finances. And regain control of your life.

3 stars for the parts I read.

In a surprise to no one, most of us have too much stuff and we buy too much more. Piper goes through some of the reasons for both of these truths then offers a 30 day plan where the reader isn’t supposed to buy anything but necessities (groceries, medicines, car repairs, gas, etc.) for thirty days.

I stopped reading here because, although I’m kind of interested in the plan I wasn’t especially interested in starting right now and the rest of the book was a day by day institution of the plan with a section to read each day. This might be something I would do at some point, though, and if I do I’ll buy a copy of the book and my rating may change. For now, it’s mostly basic stuff we all already know.
