A good 'tips' book for creating new money behaviors - easy reading, nice gift idea June 30, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Written by Mary Hunt - the editor and founder of the Cheapskate Monthly - the Financially Confident Woman is a quick read with lots of sound ideas for stretching a dollar and establishing financial independence. Pertinent scriptures are quoted for inspiration and motivation.
This short book is a great gift idea for women trying to take charge of their finances and clear their financial clutter. It also works out as a nice "bathroom" book - there is one tip per page, so it makes for easy browsing.
The advice is perfect for helping anyone create new money-related behaviors. Again, nothing too outrageous, but nice reminders just the same.
 Mary Hunt's INCREDIBLE, but this is her weakest book. August 19, 2004

I'm a HUGE Mary Hunt fan... her cheapskate lifestyle and debt-proof way of life has completely turned my finances around for the best! I've read nearly all of her books and love them so much I am quick to buy many copies and give them to others... EXCEPT THIS ONE. As a feminist, I found this book enormously patronizing. I felt that when she generalized women's spending habits, she made grossly inaccurate assumptions like I don't understand how a credit card works. If you don't know how a credit card works, read this book! I do not recommend this book unless you are a woman completely clueless about money. If you consider yourself financially savvy and trying to gain more tools, go with "The Complete Cheapskate." If you're married and trying to get a debt-proofed life, go with "Debt-Proof Marriage..." "The Gourmet Cheapskate" is also incredible! I also highly recommend her cheapskatemonthly.com newsletter, but the books are better if you're trying to make a personal change in your life with your finances. Good luck!

I found this book to be extremely helpful and informative. Mary Hunt offers practical advice in a manner that makes you feel like you're listening to advice from a good friend or relative who has been through it all. She also made me feel like I wasn't a freak for having bad financial habits but that I needed to learn how to break them. For those of you out there who are compulsive spenders (like myself), this book is a great way to start getting on the right financial track.

Mary really gave me hope! I thought this was just for women but discovered what she had to say applied to both me AND my wife.This book is a real answer to prayer and has given us a great leap forward down the road to getting out of debt...once and for all! Waytago, Mary! Hope you sell a million copies! -RPR, Franklin, TN
