From Tavis Smiley to Dr. Phil. I bought this book, because Lynnette Khalfani was the first black woman I’d heard interviewed who’d writting on a subject close to my heart — Zero Debt.
I bought this book because it wasn’t available at my library and Khalfani was on Tavis Smiley that evening when I was driving home. This book is no more helpful than Oprah money guru — Suze Orman’s book.
I’m loaded down with student debt from college and law school and I’m always on the look out for a solution to ridding myself of that mortgage sized monthly payments. It turns out when you’ve pared your life down to the bone, a book like this isn’t helpful.
The advice is helpful if you’re hanging by your fingernails on the edge fielding calls from evil bill collectors. For those of us trying to get rid of ‘good’ debt — I’m still looking for a book with a good solution.
She has one good point, though — don’t live your life pared to the bone because there isn’t anything to give up when you’re in financial trouble.
