David,
I’m an employee of Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, so I received and promptly read your book. Even though I’m already a homeowner, I still came away with some valuable information. I’m encouraging friends who rent to buy citing all the reasons you state.
I then bought the Automatic Millionaire book and again came away with powerful knowledge. I reevaluated how much I was working for myself for a week, and it came to less than two hours. Pathetic!!! I immediately increased it to 2.5 hrs to start. With the company’s match, it actually comes out to 5 hrs!! I don’t have much of a safety net either, maybe a month’s worth at best, so I sent up an automatic transfer to savings every pay period. Like 99.9% of people, I’m not disciplined to do it myself.
Thank you for writing these books. They need to be required reading at the high school and college level. I’ve been preaching for years that schools need to teach basic financial skills. Thank you again for a plan to finish rich.
