Of all the books I've read on saving I feel THE SMARTEST WAY TO SAVE is so personal and direct that it hold my attention best. Then it nails me to the wall with my particular money worries and habits, where I can see them sometimes for the first time. Example: I've actually watched my self-image rise and fall with my bank account. Now I ask you! This book by Heidi Clingen has given me many alternatives to that habit,among others.

Samuel K. Freshman and Heidi E. Clingen's new book, The Smartest Way to Save: Why You Can't Hang on to Money and What to Do About It, is so deceptively simple and reader-friendly that you almost don't notice until you've finished how comprehensive it is. Replete with wise and immediately practicable suggestions about how to use money to enhance your life, The Smartest Way to Save is also peppered with meaningful anecdotes and money stories about the authors and those people who helped them shape their money behavior. These stories foster a bond between the writers and their readers, facilitating change.



The book's three parts encourage a reader to focus on money through three different lenses: in relation to oneself, in relation to others, and in relation to the larger world. This variety of perspectives can't help but expand the consciousness of someone who doesn't customarily look at his or her spending and saving habits objectively. In addition, Freshman and Clingen offer up a panoply of tools for managing your money, getting out from under debt, and saving for the future--a richness of resource I've rarely seen in other financial self-help books.



Anyone who follows their detailed suggestions for saving money on food, clothing, transportation, travel, and entertainment--and heeds their shrewd advice on protecting oneself from scams and other fraud--should be able to go forth unafraid, ready, willing, and able to move toward financial independence.

This book is the gold standard of financial guides. It has cogent, commonsensical, comprehensive ways to save money and plan for the future. The information is easily accessible. The arguments are very persuasive. The vision easy to see. The writing is outstanding, which is rare for books in this field. It is sensibly priced. This is a fine book which has made a profound difference in my spending and savings patterns. I highly recommend it, particularly to people (like me) who need extra effort to save.
