Your Money or Your Life: Transforming Your Relationship with Money and Achieving Financial Independence

by Joe Dominguez, Vicki Robin
Finished on July 27th 2003
Rated by frankrizzo:

Straight to the facts discussion about how many days and hours you have left, statistically, and if what you're doing with your life is worth the 'time' you spend on it. A good 'do I want to be here 5 years from now' kick in the pants, and helps you sort out exactly how you want to 'spend' your time. Very insightful, high minded, well written.
