After reading Celine’s review, I’ll stick with my favorite personal finance blogger, Jen Smith, also known in the blogosphere is Millionaire Mommy Next Door.

Her story on how she and her husband became millionaires and their perspective on money are truly inspiring.

I have read the book and thought it was good. I do agree with you about the “paulit-ulit” comment. The first few chapters already says it all – most millionaires don’t look the part, but they do have the same mindset in terms of spending and accumulating money. After the first few chapters, it’s all a bunch of statistics and research data on how next-door millionaires buy cars, their worries and how they solve them, and more, which as you mentioned may not be readily applicable to Philippine setting. Why don’t you write the Philippine version?! =) I’d buy that one! =)

The Millionaire Next Door is a real motivator when it comes to personal finance. Although the book is seriously flawed, many aspects, it gives us something to hope for for the frugal things we do everyday.

Thanks for the insightful and honest review, Celine. And for keeping us from spending to listen to this audio book.

Warm regards
