The author claims to know the secret of living your life to half the price. They list several ways to live on less money. Part one: The Pursuit of Happiness; this lists living on less, putting a price tag on happiness and do I really need this?. Part two: Spend Less and Be Happy contains; Family fun on a shoestring, how to avoid starving to death on food, how to keep the lights on and so forth. Part three: Surviving Tough Times contains The Difference between Ants and Grasshoppers and how to surviving unemployment and turbulent times. Part four: Summing It Up; well is just sums everything up. The book is interesting reading but most of the suggestions were aimed at a family with children, which we are not. For me the book just suggested the things we know we should do but don't do. I've heard and read all of the suggestions before.
