Decent so far.......2007-04-11
Am only halfway through, and not bad so far. Not as many practical suggestions--his website seems much better for that. Good principles, especially in reagrds to including your spouse--even if one of you really gravitates towards finances, and the other doesn't. We're using it as a small group study for couples, and it's going well. Allows good conversation points that let you easily explore how your family histories affect how you manage finances.
Great Sequel to Financial Peace or total money make over.......2006-05-20
This is financial step 2(If you have read either of Dave's other books):This will continue your journey.I have been listening to Dave Ramsey since he started in Nashville in 1993. His common sense information is why I have a 6 figure 401K, and have had financial peace over the past 13 years. He taught me what my parents should have about personal finance. I have only made 4 car payments in 8 years(I have the cash to pay it off whenever I choose)and have had alomost zero credit card debt in 8 years.(A divorce set me back for 5 months).When I started listening to him I was BROKE.This is a great beginners book in personal finance,it can show you the way out of debt.I Would recommend strongly reading this mans books and listening to him on the radio if you want:
1) To be completely debt free.
2) Have peace of mind.
3) Have the freeedom to quit your job if you want to.
4) Have a large checking and savings account.
5) Retire young
More than Enough.......2006-02-22
Although I liked Financial Peace and The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey more than I did this book, it is still a good one. Dave really knows how to help you get your finances in line and he can really give you a wake up call of what can happen if you ignore your financial situation.
Very very good reading.......2003-12-04
I've read Dave Ramsey's other books and I think this book is worth reeading even if you've already read the others. This one I felt focused a little more on the foundations of character, values, patience, and discipline. It contains the best description of 'diligence' I've ever seen.
Highly recommended for those interested in taking a hard look at not just their debt to income ratio, but also a hard look at themselves and their values.
Life Changing!.......2003-05-14
This book is life changing. For people with financial wisdom it may be yeah, I know that. But for those of us that missed the lessons not taught on financial management in school or by our parents this book is wonderful. It is an outstanding gift for new college graduates and newlyweds. I love it and have already given it as a gift a half dozen times within a month of completing the book. It helps couples talk about their disconnects on managing the household income in a self mocking way. It also helps eliminate some of the stress around money when you truly recognize it's purpose.

A Fun Financial Must Read for Twenty-Somethings & College Grads.......2007-06-23
I've read several books on personal finances that were supposedly for 20 year olds and they were all a bore. Those books either were for 40 year olds or never progressed beyond "How to write a check". But, Peter Bielagus' book is just right.
He addresses all the concerns of a twenty year old and beyond with great advice and humor. Peter shows you how to budget without feeling restricted and frustrated. Getting Loaded explains the stock market in laymen's terms which makes you feel comfortable investing your money. All in all, Getting Loaded is a great book to help you set up your financial future and learn how to get your money to work for you.
College graduates should definitely pick up this book and it's also a great graduation gift. I highly recommend this book, it's a great read!
Get Ready. Get Set. Get Rich*.......2007-04-26
As Peter Bielgaus annunciates, "Make a Million...While you're still young enough to enjoy it. "Getting Loaded" is a sure read that can help you become a millionaire after smart investments and good savings. Bielagus uses step by step examples and explainations that make the hardest economic concepts easy to interpret and learn. "He shows how you can use your youth to your advantage--and take control of your finances while time is on your side." Specifically, Bielagus thoroughly introduces the stock market and how to invest with control and risk in mind and still get a great reward towards the future. Initially, he gives a broad overview of how to's within the stock market and then procedes to explain how to take as much advantage of the stock market as possible.
Awesome book, awesome author, awesome advice!!!.......2007-03-04
Ten stars! I wish I bought this book when I was in my 20s, but its not too late at any age. Each of the 50 strategies is a gem, and a few are geared towards middle aged and older folks, the rest I can pass on to my kids (when i have them). It's the best $12 I've ever invested! Here's a quote from the book that I totally agree with: "[this book] is by no means a stairway to heaven, but it is a rope ladder. Keep climbing, you'll get there" (referring to having a healthy financial life). Plus I love his writing style. What good is a book on finances if it'll put you to sleep? On the contrary, it was VERY hard to put this book down. this book goes on my very short list of "must read" books. you can't afford not to.
Funny Money....a book about finances that won't put you to sleep.......2006-03-10
I am a 19 year old high school graduate. I was given a copy from my boss, a commercial realtor. I have to admit that when I read the cover, I laughed inside. I'm 19 like I care about money markets, stocks, bonds, IRA's, and 401k's. All this is like a foreign language to someone my age...and it is a language few can help us decipher. Peter Bielagus is one of those few translators. He does it in a poignant and humorous manner that made it hard for me to put down. I intend to make sure that everyone I know has a copy of this hilariously and helpful guide to finances. Peter finally proves that money can be fun. Go out and get yourself a copy today it's a must have for young adults and a should have for every other age group
Informative, entertaining, and very concise.......2005-04-28
This book is wonderful for a young person looking to get on track with his/her finances. It manages to explain the mundane world of treasury bonds and retirement accounts in an witty and entertaining way while avioding jargon. After just a few chapters I was ready to fianlly open up that tax-favored 401k and stuff it with some no load index mutual funds. It's a must read for anybody who's green on investments (no pun intended.)
Book Description

His easy-to-follow workbook illustrates each of these traits and allows readers to frequently assess their progress and honestly evaluate their situation. How to Have More Than Enough offers readers and their spouses the chance to work toward building wealth and strengthening their families.
Customer Reviews:
exceptional book.......2006-11-03
Consumer debt has long been a problem of most americans. The writer is very explicit about those things which cause us to go into consumer debt.
One of the things he addresses is greed, not having the patience to wait
for the money in our hand to purchase items. I am a baby boomer and our generation has been known to want things microwave quick. This book addresses the dangers and pitfallsof that thinking. It will set you free from stinking thinking!
How to Have More than Enough : A Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Abundance .......2006-02-25
********wonderful*******
Especially appropriate for Christian families.......2004-11-10
I very much appreciate Dave Ramsey's putting financial matters in the context of virtuous behavior. This is not just a "get out of debt" book or a "make real money" book. It is a book that reminds its readers how many of us stray from fiscal health, suckered in by the 'race to get ahead and then fall behind' values common to the vast majority of Americans - materialism, status, name brands, immediate gratification, antagonism, impermanence, gluttony, lack of responsibility, even lack of contentment. Ramsey knows all too well that when it comes to fiscal restraint and good money habits, this is not a virtuous society. He recommends solid values to counteract the mainstream of American life - patience, delayed gratification, humility, cooperation, peace, communication, contentment and, of course, paying CASH. I wholly applaud this philosophy.
But, merely as a qualifier, I do want to let the prospective reader know that Mr. Ramsey's work is not secular. Bible passages, a Christian perspective and religious messages (such as suggesting prayer and counsel with clergy) set the tone much of the way, and the book is geared (not entirely but mostly) toward traditional and fairly conventional nuclear families.
As a more daring and thorough departure from those seemingly ubiquitous American go-getter values that lure so many into dire straits (such as 'the more you buy the more you save'), I can heartily recommend the popular classic "Your Money or Your Life."
ABSOLUTE MUST READ!.......2000-10-05
This book is extremely benefial to read. Its easy reading joyfully guides you how to build a good foundation for success, personal wealth, and good family relationships. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Insightful!.......2005-05-20
Authors Connie Brown Glaser and Barbara Steinberg Smalley deftly combine solid reporting of facts, figures and poll results with insightful stories about women who have abandoned the corporate rat race. This concise look at a pivotal trend is not limited to women only, though they are its emphasis. The authors introduce high-powered executive women who seek more purpose, balance and fulfillment, and find it by taking less stressful positions, starting their own businesses or switching careers. Much of the story is told through the personal case histories of corporate strivers who decide to chuck it all and go home. Many of these pioneers asked, "What good is all this money when I have no time to enjoy it?" They got tired of being "corporate machines," sick of jeopardizing their health and their important relationships. While many employers now understand that satisfaction, purposefulness and appreciation can trump money, some ground still need to get broken here. We highly recommend this book to people at all levels in the work force because it will help you consider your destiny - even if you love the electricity of corporate life and would be bored to tears making gift baskets in your garage.
Thank Goodness! Inspiration for Professionals on Mommy-Trk.......2001-06-29
I am a professional personnel who dove head first into being a stay at home mom - who misses the professional world, but knows she is in the right place w/kids right now, home - it can be a shocker. Even with all of the stay at home mom stress, it's worth it to me to make $0 and stay home with our kids. The biggest lesson I've learned these past 4 years is to take care of your mind, body and spirit (self-esteem). This book shows others (even non-moms) how they can regain balance in their lives by determining what they love to do and shifting their professional gears to a more fulfilling position. Excellent read!
If Not Money, What?.......2001-01-05
Glaser and Smalley are among the most influential of current business scholars because they think so clearly and write so well while discussing the most important issues. Perhaps you have already read their Swim with the Dolphins. If not, you are urged to do so. In this book, they focus on an especially timely subject: The importance of "soul" in the equation for "success." In recent years, I have examined the results of more than 30 "employee satisfaction" surveys and was surprised, frankly, by what were rated the highest attributes: feeling appreciated, being treated with respect, believing in the value of the work to be done, enjoying the work to be done, and trusting the organization by which one is employed. What about compensation? Depending upon the individual survey, it was ranked anywhere from ninth to thirteen in importance. For those who participated in the surveys and probably for most other workers, money is never enough and seldom most important. The authors ask all of the right questions but, to their credit, resist the temptation to advocate any ":right answers." That responsibility they entrust to each reader. Although this is another of recently published books which have a gender-specific frame-of-reference, almost everything the authors share can also be of substantial value to men...not only to understand much better their mothers, sisters, wives, daughters, business associates, etc. but, more to the point, to understand themselves much better.
When Money Isn't Enough.......2000-06-25
Connie Glaser is right on target. All who have not read her book, When Money Isn't Enough, get it. She shares with us reality today. It is tough. The time pressures and family pressures are a reality. Nobody outlines the current environment and the choices better than Connie Glaser in this very special book. It is command reading for everyone, woman and man alike. Give it to your colleagues and discuss the challenges. Glaser makes us stop and reflect on choices we all have. Congratulations to Connie Glaser and all of us will be helped with the right balance we choose. Her work advances our own thinking.
Great lessons in balance, fufillment and inspiration!!!.......1999-09-22
The authors have done an outstanding job by communicating to readers how to acheive fufilling, balanced life-styles. The stories are great lessons for women who are questioning the meaning of success. Is it how much money you make or how much time you have to relax and enjoy your family and friends?
This book provides inspiration for women who desire something more than a title and a six-figure salary. Success is defined many different ways by the women featured in this book. The numerous examples of redefined success are refreshing and thought provoking.
Product Description
A wonderful book that has given thousands of men, women and children an opportunity to discover their welth of limitless potential.

Even before September 11, more and more of us were expressing dissatisfaction with the widening imbalance between our personal and professional lives--and our numbers have doubtlessly increased since that day. Pamela York Klainer, an executive coach and workplace consultant, had been watching this feeling grow among her clients, and How Much Is Enough? offers her well-considered strategy for bringing career and home life into better harmony. Klainer's underlying premise is that we all have a "money story," a lifelong ingrained perspective on capital and the possessions it can buy that establishes our directions in life and work, and eventually whether we are happy with the results. Utilizing tools like a "money autobiography," she offers a method to help us understand the way we truly feel about money and the amount of it we think we need to meet our own definition of success. More importantly, she then shows how knowledge of where such thinking originates, and how it evolves, can be used for adjusting actions to reach goals that prove more satisfying. "How much is enough" may indeed be the underlying question we all need to answer for ourselves before a desirable equilibrium can be attained. --Howard Rothman
Book Description
The successful consultant dubbed the "money shrink" by Money Magazine shares her strategies for conquering the last taboo: understanding and taking charge of our relationship to money.
Whether we are CEOs of our own start-ups, senior executives with stock-option packages, or keepers of modest 401(k) accounts who watch the NASDAQ with terror, our relationship to money and work defines our daily lives. Yet, most of us don't really know what we want from work or how the time we devote to making money relates to the "rest" of our lives.
How Much Is Enough? urges us to step back and ask how money and success point us toward a sense of accomplishment and a feeling of self-worth. In this path-breaking book, executive coach and consultant Dr. Pamela York Klainer shows us how to improve our often-troubled relationship to money.
Supported by real-life anecdotes and time-tested insights, Klainer uses "money" as a window into the core values and behavior of successful people--and of those working hard to be successful. Based on her experience as a consultant to thousands of leaders in fast-growing companies, Klainer offers a practical framework for defining--and linking--money, the drive for success, and our longing for happiness. Millions of us--from the boardroom to the home office--are shaken by turbulent markets and feel unable to shake the pressure to do more, better, faster. Dr. Klainer gives us the tools we need to channel the power of money in creative ways, so that we can map out the road to a more meaningful and happy life.
Harness the power of your own life's "money story" as Dr. Pamela York Klainer shows you how to answer the four basic money questions:
· Do you see money as for "me" or for "we"?
If it's for "me," how do you create a sense of meaning about your life? If it's for "we," how can you find time outside of work?
· How do you manage the power of money?
Can you use your money to create meaningful difference in the world without riding roughshod over other people's desires and aspirations?
· Do you see yourself as a provider or an organizer?
How do you negotiate ownership of these roles, at home and in the workplace?
· How much is enough?
What amount of money will allow you to stop driving so hard? If you don't like to focus on money, why not? What are you missing?
Money choices are about exercising personal power. By changing our money story, we can--in new and powerful ways--change who are about to become.
Customer Reviews:
Smug and superficial.......2003-08-23
This book is poorly organized and repetitive. Its tone is smug and condescending. There are some good ideas, but they could have been presented in a magazine article, not a full book.
I Wish This Book was Written 40 years ago.......2003-04-30
Upon the recommendation of a friend, I just read this wonderful book, "How Much is Enough?" My friend saw Dr. Klainer speak, and was so impressed that she rushed out and bought the book, and then passed the book to me. I saw myself in her book as the person who did meaningful, but low-paying work, and now find myself at retirement age, but without the means to do so. And my son has also chosen work that is low paying, probably due to money attitudes that he inherited from me. I have passed my copy on to him, and for the first time in my life, had a conversation about money with him. It wasn't easy. But I hope that it is the start for him to look at his money story as I share mine.
Beyond the personal message for me, this book is so well-written; I feel that I know the author, and would like to meet her in person, or hear her speak. She brings to life all of the other money stories that she conveys to her readers. This is a book to read many times for new insights.
Enough Already!.......2003-04-09
The book talks endlessly about the "problems" of spoiled Si Valley types who basically have millions of $, but no soul. Most of the examples tell of people who have second and even third homes, income into 6 figures, and a net worth into 7 figures. I had to chuckle when the author writes about her kid's cars on pg 19, "Both bought their cars outright with their own earned money, not by tapping the assets that have been gifted to them." Excuse me, -- Gifted to them--- what planet is this lady from? Obviously this is a book for the Si Valley power bunch, not for the average Joe who has never been "gifted" a darn thing.
The inside front cover flap of the book says, "..The first money book built on the idea that you need to understand what money means to you before you drive yourself crazy trying to get it...." I guess they never saw the Dominguez classic _Your_Money_or_Your_Life. Domenguez uses the concept of "life energy" and does a much better job.
The book uses too many words to explain simple concepts. The book could have been half as many pages, if not 1/4 as many. For example, on page 180, the author talks about her bike with the gel saddle sitting the the garage, and how her husband wants to go on a long ride for this birthday. --Who Cares, and what does this add to the book's message?
Over and over again, I see the theme of "Women good, men bad." More often than not, the Women are the heros and men are the dorks. For example, in the story of the liquor store owners, the wife saved the day -- this is a recurring theme with many other examples.
I laughed out loud when I got to Pg 43, "In 1999, talk about explicit sexual practives became a formal part of the Congressional Record via the Starr investigation." -- Excuse me, why not call it the Clinton Investigation, or even the Clinton Impeachment Process?
In the Power and Money section, she writes, "..it's more effective to run for elective office with your own money - as [did] presidential candidate Steve Forbes." Hmmm, I have no idea how this author measures effectiveness. How was Forbes more effective than the others? Did Steve Forbes win? Does anyone even remember that Steve Forbes ran?
One other chuckle I had reading this book was about the guy who said it was more difficult to come out as "a millionaire" than to come out as "gay." Well, buddy, you can always give up all that cash and then you can come out as "average," or even "poor" if you like. Life ain't that bad, and your rich man's problem is so easily solved.
I did not see the point of this book at all. I don't expect many copies of this book to sell.
How Much is Enough? Pamela York Klainer.......2002-08-19
I want the book, but I can't read. I came on, hoping it would be on a CD, but no luck. Is there anyway you can notify me if and when it goes on a CD? Thank you.
Enough to Keep Haunting Me!.......2002-02-16
This book keeps "coming up" in my mind. It raised questions that I know I must explore. It's an easy read, made quite engaging though skillful use of real people's stories (including the author's). But it's not a simple read! It asks readers to look carefully at their own life stories, choices, intentions and meaning-making. The book equally values perspectives often seen as mutually exclusive. However, it asks us to more fully understand the implications of the perspectives we hold and the results we create in our lives out of those "stories" through which we view the world. I read a lot and almost never re-read a book or "push" others to read a particular book. With HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH, I'm doing both.

IT REALLY WORKS!.......2002-04-19
ENOUGH MONEY really works! Mr. Vodra has developed a sensible and practical approach to managing one's personal financial life. His "Seven Rules of Prosperous Living" are easy to understand and follow. After reading his book and completing a "Lifetime Balance Sheet", I have managed to begin a savings plan and almost eliminate my credit card debt in a few short months. I highly recommend Mr. Vodra's approach to gaining financial freedom.
Common sense, simple rules, down-to-earth language........2002-04-15
Before I can do my job as a financial planner, I often have to cajole my client into getting their stuff together in order to give me some idea what I have to work with. Now I can just refer them to Dick's wonderful book. Taking the "Seven Rules of Prosperous Living" and applying them to the "Lifetime Balance Sheet" can help even the most disorganized, disfunctional procrastinator develop an easy formula for a stress-free financial future.
