Before readingWhy I picked it up

Growing up I learned a lot from my mother on making a dollar stretch. I had recently graduated from college and wanted to build some personal finance knowledge. I think I must of heard the author speak on some podcast and was interested to hear more from him, so I did some research and got this book.

After readingPosted January 8, 2016

Clark covers many ways to savings month from cell phones to student loans, coupon websites to mortgages, investing to electric bills, and beyond. Many of the tips were very actionable, and I found myself making changes as soon as I finished reading. Since the book was published back in 2011, some tips have gotten outdated, particularly much of the technology related ones. If you decide to get this, consider E-Book.

Three reasons to read it

  1. 01You are frugal and like to look for ways to save money
  2. 02Learn how to Shop Smarter
  3. 03Improve your personal finance skills
