Summary: I'm a PAW, Thank you Mr. Givens
Comment: Also read Millionaire next Door (which should be read right along with Financial Self Defense). By use of the strategies in Financial Self Defense, I was able to buy my dream car for 60% less, switch from a overprced Cash Value Life Insurance policy to a Term policy and got three times the protection at 1/2 the cost, cancelled the credit life and disability off two personal oans and the mortgage life off of our mortgage and got a refund (which came in handy) also switched from a 30 year mortgage to a 15. We are forever graeful to Mr Givens for writing this excellent book. It has helped us to make a quantum leap in our finances. By the way, since Mr. Givens paid $27,000 for a $90,000 Excalibur, would you say that it's safe to say Mr. Givens is a PAW??

Summary: SAVED MORE THAN $32,000 WITH THE GIVENS STRATEGIES!!!
Comment: In 1992 I was devastated with a a divorce, loss of my job and loss of a loved one. I was emotionally and financially "blown away".
A friend loaned me a book that she said would help me financially. It was "More Wealth without Risk" (see my testimonial in More Wealth Without Risk reviews). I made a immediate financial turnaround.
Sold on Mr Givens strategies, I went out and bought 'Financial Self-DeFense" and saved an immediate $4,500 BY CANCELLING A CASH VALUE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY. I bought a term, non cash value policy saving over $800 per year in premiums with triple the protection that I had before. Without the techniques explained in Financial Self Defense, I couldn't have done this. My insurance company was fighting me the whole way and didn't want to let go of the money.
I also cancelled the charge guard on my credit cards, credit life on a a bank loan and extended warranty on my vehicle as well as credit life again. Was ! ! I a sucker or what? This amounted to an additional $734 in cash which I needed desperately at the time.
I also opened a Money Market Mutual Fund and started using this for all my checkwriting and earning 8% instead of the 3% that my bank was offering.
I moved the mutual fund that my parents started for me when I graduated from High School from a fee paying insurance company to a no fee (no load) pure mutual fund company and am getting much better returns and saving a "load" in unnecessary commissions.
In addition to More Wealth without Risk and Financial Self Defense, I would like to mention two other books that helped me tremendously at that time; Think & Grow Rich by Dr Napolean Hill and the greatest of all books, THE BIBLE.
The actual net return to me starting in my second year of following all of the strategies; Personal Finance, Tax Reducing and Powerful Investing in both MORE WEALTH WITHOUT RISK & FINANCIAL SELF DEFENSE WAS OVE! ! R $32,000!!!
Rating: 5
Summary: I learned a lot about taxes and I was already tax savvy
Comment: I had been for many years an aggressive tax preparer and felt that I know just about everything there was to know about taxes. Givens books Financial Self Defense and More Wealth Without Risk taught me many strategies that I wasn't aware of.
Also recommend SuperSelf, a super personal development book by Givens and Money Mastery another great book on reducing taxes...legally.
