I found it to be a positive approach

I found it to be a positive approach to eliminating debt. Recommend for everyone who needs to follow and remain good habits in finance. This book does address some components that are usually missing or often glossed over because of simplicity rules. The author spends a chapter and makes several references to bankruptcy and how to respond. This includes problems such as garnishment, foreclosure, and repossession. Straight forward with several applicable suggestions; even on dealing with creditors and collection agencies.
