Description

Conscious Spending, Conscious Life is a manual for anyone who wants to move from unconscious consumption to conscious spending. Why would you? In a consumer world, it's incredibly easy to make poor choices that haunt us for years. Usually, we are deep in difficulty by the time anyone stops us. The best approach is conscious spending. Presenting a timeless philosophy in the context of modern life, Conscious Spending, Conscious Life will enrich the way you look at money and at life. Packed with practical information and thought-provoking ideas, it helps you think for yourself and make satisfying decisions. Based on Laurana Rayne's long-time experience as a college instructor, Conscious Spending, Conscious Life is sprinkled with personal anecdotes, relevant stories, clearly-written examples, and useful diagrams. This is not a textbook. Int is intended to inspire everyone to broaden their perspectives, ask questions, think independently, and cultivate common sense, Parents and grandparents will recognize it as a worthwhile resource for family members starting out on their own. Those with more life experience will find valuable perspectives to augment their current thinking about money and their lives. It's the kind of book that can be reread many times, in whole or in part, because what the reader derives will vary depending on his or her stage in life.
