<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Money affects every aspect of our lives. It affects how we dress, where we live, what we eat and how we spend our free time. It affects our emotions and enhances or detracts from our enjoyment of life. Effective money management is about so much more than just 401(k) contributions and saving money at the grocery store. <p/> No matter how much or how little money you earn, the key to financial success is to spend less than you make. However, the majority of Americans spend unconsciously, wasting money on purchases that give them little satisfaction for their investment. Living the Savvy Life teaches how to create habits and routines that allow you to build and manage your finances effortlessly. By learning how to focus spending on what is truly important to you and economizing on those things that are not as important, you can successfully manage your personal finances and enjoy life regardless of your level of income.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>It's Not About Being Cheap. Living the Savvy Life isn't about being a cheapskate, a miser or a tightwad. It's about having security and peace of mind by spending less than you make. It's about knowing where you stand financially on a daily basis so you can make intelligent fiscal decisions. It's about being penny-wise on the things that are less important to you so you can spend money on the things that are important to you. It's about choosing to purchase only the things that you love and make you happy. It's about cooking at home more often so you can occasionally splurge on dinner at your favorite restaurant. It's about creating an environment in your home that is warm, comforting, and expressive of who you are. It's about having a wardrobe made entirely of clothes that fit and look great on you. It's about enjoying your time off even more because you planned for it and know you can "afford it." Although Living the Savvy Life is filled with ways to save money, it isn't about frugal living. It's about finding, attaining and maintaining balance.
