From Booklist
Financial and legal consultant Pollan and coauthor Levine, the team who wrote the best-sellers Die Broke (1998) and Live Rich (1998), have uncovered another gold mine of advice: problem solving. Using a six-step rational, fact-filled approach, they teach readers how to cope with all the downs in life, from the "I'm too old" job hunter's whine to the "I'll get taken to the cleaners" fear of a to-be-divorcing spouse. Actual case histories, of course, illustrate and illuminate points made, but the real learning comes from the 8 beginning chapters and 29 different life situations we all experience. One example is: What if I outgrow the commercial space I'm leasing? Pollan's advice concerning that question is: cut to the chase, for the issue is simply that the lease restricts your business' ability to change. This book defines "best practices in self-help books." Barbara Jacobs
