Introductions All Around

I am creating this blog as a place for me to write about, well anything.

Topics that I am interested in that you may find here include: Personal Finance, Health and Fitness, Ketogenic Diets, Motivation and the power of a Positive Mental Attitude, and of course the various fun activities in my life such as: Disc Golf, Board and Card games and maybe even the occasional video game if I find the time.

I will also try to keep up with reviews of the books I've read, in part so I can take the time to think and discuss what I've read, but also to allow others that might enjoy my writing to enjoy the writing of the professionals that inspire me.

Mini Book Review: Dave Ramsey - The Money Answer Book

The Money Answer Books is great for those that need a good start to personal finance, but are afraid of getting too deep too quickly. I would perhaps recommend the book Total Money Makeover instead, but this book is a fantastic reference guide to keep you motivated, with clear instructions, lots of motivational quotes, and a simple layout that doesn't leave information in huge chapters, allowing for very easy bite sized consumption.

Should you read this book? Maybe. Do I recommend this book? Maybe.  What I really recommend is the Total Money Makeover, which is what this book is truly talking about, but if this small book is your toe in the water to that, then that would be a great thing.

I believe in living debt free, and am working aggressively towards the goal of becoming and staying debt free.  Before Dave I had never heard the phrase "The borrower is slave to the lender" but that's exactly how I've felt since I first had to use a credit card as an emergency fund 10 years ago.
