Helpful Score: 3

Although I didn't agree with all of her ideas (such as people don't need religion/faith) I found some of her ideas quite fascinating. The book really made me think about why I buy things I don't really need and how I can cut back on my unnecessary spending. I had a hard time with some of the more academic portions of the book (she goes in depth about economics which I don't know much about) but I loved the parts about how she and her partner would argue about what items constituted a necessity (wine? ski socks? ski wax?) It took me a while to get into the book, and it was slow going, but I'm glad I read it.
