Truly inspirational.

There are only a handful of books that I have ever read that I thought were so encapsulating that I didn't want to put it down until I was done; This is now one of them. The amazing descriptive wording paints a perfect portrait without being left to make assumptions or try to fill in the blanks. I love this. Not enough writers truly embrace this technique. The flow is also remarkable considering that the author moves so quickly from the past to present day and back and forth again without ever losing you. How he accomplished this alone was impressive.

As for the story; It has everything. No holds barred. Brutal honesty with a path blazen for anyone to follow. This is an inspiring story told from a point as low as you could possibly go. Forget all of those self-help Dr Phil fluff filled books. We all want to know that we're not alone in the unending trials that life puts before us- Rich does that. This book is real. It is human. It is honest. It breathes. It allows you to know that we're all creating messes that we can find a way through.

At this point in our world, this book comes at a perfect time. This book supports our president's mantra of Hope in the face of disaster. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72450947 Your Money or Your Life: Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence (Paperback) by Joe Dominguez
