Tax-Free Wealth

Finally! A tax book that lifts the veil for everyone!

There is so much I could say about Tom Wheelwright's book and still not do it justice. So many of us "common folk" have grown up fearing the tax code because it seems more incomprehensible and scary. Often, the tax collector carries the same ominous aura of dread associated with the boogie man! But, Tom is extremely…

More motivational than educational

There are a few nuggets of wisdom worth hearing in here, but you must wind your way through massive amounts of dross to find them. The book is 75% motivational speech material and anecdotal comments; only the remaining 25% is informational. The things you will learn from this book are highly generalistic, and many of…

Everyone needs to see this

This book is a relatively quick read and is very well researched. Right now, "officials" are claiming that 5G and other EMF is perfectly safe. They base this on a few biased studies and refer to it as "science" and close the book as a foregone conclusion. Let's be real. A handful of studies is not enough to declare a…

Very interesting and informative. Best book I've read in a while.

I stopped caffeine and in a couple of days it had such a profound impact on how I felt, I bought this book to understand what was happening. I was never a big coffee drinker, usually not more than a couple cups a day. But I must be very sensitive to it because things like anxiety and anger went away so quickly in the…

Returned! Was practically a textbook !!!

It was too wordy and too lengthy to read almost 400 pages. Returned and quit cold turkey instead!! I wanted results NOW not as long as it would take to read that book.

Crucial Info with easy to understand, fun presentation

WOW! I LOVE THIS BOOK!! I got very very sick after living under a cell tower for a few months. I already had health issues, but that exposure was a tippping point in my toxicity and I became very sensitive to EMF. I have done quite a bit of research, so I thought this book was perhaps a bit too basic for my…

This books needs a re-write

Though I believe strongly in the message and the danger of EMF I have to say that the book is too ambitious in its scope and needs to be re-written.

Teach this to your family!

Great easy book to read and follow. A lot of similarities from another ecosystem I’ve educated myself on. However this system Mark Quann spells out and holds your hand as he describes the step by step process of implementation…makes it so easy to understand. I’m 60 and no one has ever taught how simple it is to save…

Even at 67, I Can Benefit Too!

I wasn’t sure how I was ever going to retire, even after doing everything my CPA and financial advisor told me for 27 years. I paid off my home, funded my Roth IRA for the past 12 years, and contributed to my retirement account to get the company match. I thought I was on the right track. But no matter how much I…

Helpful, informative, and written in simple terms

I've recommended this book to many in my mold and chronic illness groups. It's easy to follow (even with brain fog) as it's written in simple, laymen's terms. She gives some anecdotes that are helpful, too because she puts it into context about how it presents in everyday life -- instead of just covering symptoms and…

Great book-needs an upgrade

This book is phenomenal- but I have one gripe: it does not lay flat. This makes it difficult to write on. I wish there was a spiral bound version of some sort, so it would be easier to write on.

A common criticism
★☆☆☆☆
Boring and tedious tasks.

Bought this and was excited to give it a go. Turns out I’d rather have my eyelids pulled off slowly than fill out this workbook. Waste of money.

A Lifesaving Book!

This book by Andrew Ferebee is saving my life now. On 11/17 this yr, my wife of 30 yrs told me she was divorcing me. I'll be 78 next month. This is an absolute "how to" understand + recover from when we are dumped, or cancelled by a spouse or significant other. I gave it 5 stars. It deserved 20!

A common criticism
★☆☆☆☆
Not a break up manual, more like a breakup pamphlet

There was some good stuff in it about testosterone, but all the rest was very short and superficial. I felt the author was slinging around scientific words without truly understanding them. The whole book seemed more like a long article intended to make you buy his other dating book.

Excellent Table of Contents to Find what you need

Wanted to love it; Outdated & Carb Phobic Content

There are many outdated phrases and concepts that could be harmful for people trying to heal from caffeine addiction & food binges or restriction. The book encourages against eating starches and carbohydrates. Part of the reason we are so desperate for caffeine today, is cultural fear in America of fresh bread, pasta…

For anyone who is on the fence about porn addiction....

This book helped me sort through a lot of issues I was facing while battling an addiction. It puts things into perspective without using large words and gives you some fundamentals to understand / choose if you think porn is bad or not. Granted the author swings more towards it being bad and explains to you why…

I don't like the way the author assumes every man is heterosexual

I don't like the way the author assumes every man is heterosexual. Porn is a huge issue for gay men and something geared towards us would be very helpful. All this talk about men being with women and the underlying assumption that this is how it is was quite distracting and annoying. At least put a an acknowledgement…

Not very useful.

Bought this book hoping that there would be useful information inside it....disappointed. If you've been an expat for several years already a lot of the information is redundant. You might get more from this book if you own a business abroad...but even then, real advice is scarce and the book is just full of vague…

Don't waste your money

I love the YNAB website, app, and overall method, but this book is a waste of a dollar (that should have been given another job). It just regurgitates what is already found on the website and doesn't really deal with real world examples of people's lives. The main message is that all your cash should be used to pay…

Clearly written.

Very clearly written. Easy to understand. Haven't put anything in the book into practice yet but plan to. The only negative is that I wish the book had an index in the back. I've been using underlining and sticky tab notes which has been working to find info when I need it.

Really deceived by this book

I was really deceived by this book. I don't feel that this author is credible. I feel that Nicolas Pineault is much more credible as another regarding EMF.

I've been reading a lot about porn recently. This book doesn't say anything I can take issue with, but it also doesn't really say that much. It's a very short book with very little in the way of insight. It's more like a summary of some of the many excellent books on porn addiction that are out there. As there are…
