For some, such a title might spawn a sarcastic chuckle or two. For others, this might urge them to read on in the hopes of being referred to a useful book. I am not particularly an avid fan of the genre but I have an open mind when it comes to books. I believe that you can learn from any book so long as you think about the information you are reading. Perhaps parts of the content of the book does not apply to you but other parts might, perhaps you’ve learned nothing useful from this author in your own life but at the least, you exercise the skill of judgement in deciding what works and what won’t. If your thought process ventures deep enough, this might even lead you to discover and eradicate certain fears that result in your dismissal of the books content. The first step to conquering a fear is to be aware of it.

In the spirit of such an attitude, I’ve read quite a few personal finance, self-help books and I’ll be sharing my thoughts on these over the next few posts:
