Finally, a book that doesn't talk down to me
How refreshing to find a book about personal finance that doesn't treat me like an idiot because I sometimes want to pamper myself with non-essentials like a huge TV. She also uses concepts and phrases like "cost to friendship" rather than focusing on money as the only thing that matters in life.

The use of real-life examples shows that the author knows that economic theory is one thing, and how people really live their lives is a different thing. The book doesn't make me feel like a moron because I don't have an MBA and this approach really does help me understand her explanation of savings, economics, etc. better than the other "experts."

Wealthy Choices
This book is a must for anyone seeking to explore how they arrive at choices in their lives that have financial impact. Ms. Tzougros's keen insights as well as myriad examples bring the principles for making better choices to life and provide practical ideas to make changes to achieve greater financial freedom. It is crammed with valuable insights and ideas. One of the nice things about this book is that many of the examples are ones that I have experienced and can relate to. As a businessman who considers himself fairly astute in making financial decisions, this book provided me with insights I had not thought of and will be implementing to continue to achieve financial success. This is a must read and should be in everyone's bookshelf as a resource to return to over and over again.

Best Bet!
Penelope Tzougros' book is a treasure. I have been reading it since I recieved it as a Christmas present, and by the time I was a few chapters into it, I went out and purchased several copies to give as gifts. This is a valuable gift for anyone of any age and any income. It is a pleasure to read the financial suggestions in the context that we experience them in our everyday life. Money management has a role in our lives daily and has a context. Penelope uses these contexts to teach the smart ways to be at peace with our financial interactions. Her handle on psychology and values is so apparent. I applaud her masterful efforts! I truly hope that the people for whom I have purchased these books will read it and gain a better understanding of their financial behavior. Penelope is a wonderful guide through the maze of money matters.
