    Jasmine gets straight to the point and is very clear and easy to understand. The book was very useful and answered a number of questions that I needed answering.

    Excellent

    At moments, it seemed to be an audiobook trying to promote and drive traffic to their website.

    Boring

    This is essential. It turned my financial catastrophe around. I found it accessible, to the point and strangely fun. Also I recommend her website, moneymagpie.com, which is more of the same.

    Invaluable

    One of the reassuring things about Jasmine Birtles is that she genuinely wants to help other people.
    If you're in debt then don't go to one of the companies that advertise on TV - there are free charities that will negotiate with your creditors (the people you owe money to) for you.
    What's more there are loads of little things you can do right now to save and make money. They are spelt out in easy, simple steps and they work.
    Brilliant!
