My Money Pit

“How-to” books

My biggest money pit over the years has been “how-to” books. Most women know the ones I’m referring to – those books that promise us a revolutionary new way to diet, decorate, meditate or get in shape.

Unfortunately, these revolutionary new weight-loss methods still seem to involve dieting and willpower. The decorating tips are too expensive. The meditation takes up too much time. And the books on how to get in shape are still harping on exercise.
