Description
How to live on less without limiting your life
Yet, for many Americans, this seems to be an impossible task. According to a recent Pew study, 46% of Americans spend more money than they earn each month. Hopefully, you’re not part of the 46%, but even if you are, you can still fix your spending and get your finances back on track.
With some out-of-the-box thinking, simple lifestyle changes, and a thoughtful evaluation of your spending, you can have enough left over to save and invest.
In Attack Your Expenses, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:
* The 4 spinning plates of personal finance that you need to balance, and how each will bring you closer to financial freedom
* The main expenses you should focus on reducing to make a significant impact on your cost of living
* A unique living arrangement that, in some cases, will have you being paid to live in someone else’s house
* How you can eat fresher, healthier food while cutting down on your grocery bills at the same time
* How sharing with others can pay off for you, not just socially, but also mentally and financially
* The inaccurate beliefs about money that could be keeping you from building significant wealth
* How you’re unintentionally wasting your money with these penny-snatching habits
* Extreme examples of creative frugality that show you just what’s possible when it comes to saving money
And much more.
You’ll find that you don’t really need much to live a meaningful life, and before you know it, you’ll have a considerable nest egg that will comfortably last you through retirement, and even beyond, to your future generations.
If you’re serious about securing your financial future without sacrificing, you are in the right place.

What's great about this book is that it's easy to read and you find yourself moving quickly through the book for insights and practical tips on finances.
Thanks Netgalley for the eARC. This could well be read by a general audience without feeling like someone is bogging them down with too much financial information.

This book was written well and I read it in one sitting. It is easy to read the sections that are most applicable to your situation without feeling the need to read pages that do not apply.

This book gave me new ideas for better finances, as well as reminding me about things that I should already be doing.
Jess M, Reviewer
Read in one sitting, was really easy to digest and full of quick and simple tips to help improve your finances and expenses. Had some really good ideas on investing too. The book was broken down into multiple sections - some didn't apply to me such as the senior discounts section just like the parenting section may not apply to others.
Stephanie L, Librarian
This book was an entertaining read and did give me a few practical ideas that I hadn't thought of before for managing money. The impression though is a list of suggestions: some run-of-the-mill, some a little less practical. But really there's a suggestion for everyone, you just have to pick the ones that you, personally, can make work.
