About this listen
Popular blogger Anna Newell Jones of AndThenWeSaved.com delivers this self-help manifesto that reveals how a "spending fast" will help you get on the road to living debt free.
In 2009, young photographer Anna Newell Jones was rapidly suffocating under the weight of too much debt. An inveterate spender, she was in way over her head, to the tune of almost $24,000. She knew her debt was only going to get worse if she didn't take action, but she didn't know where to look for help. On a whim, Anna decided to go on a spending fast - an idea she heard in passing but knew little about. Creating her own method, she learned what worked and what didn't and wrote about it on her blog, AndThenWeSaved.com. Amazingly, Anna was able to eliminate all $23,605.10 of her debt in only 15 months! She was interviewed in Forbes, Self, Glamour, Good Housekeeping, and the Chicago Tribune.
Anna's journey inspired people and showed them that they too could change the way they dealt with their own money woes. The Spender's Guide to Debt-Free Living takes listeners through a detailed, step-by-step plan on how to do a spending fast and get out of debt, including:
- Creating a personalized debt-free life pledge
- Understanding where your money is going when you're in debt and where it will come from to pay it off
- Learning why putting money into a savings account before (or while) paying off debt may not be the best idea for you
- Finding additional income sources and generating side gigs
- Reintegrating spending into your life once you're out of debt so that you stay out of debt
Filled with do-it-yourself ideas, insight from experts, and tons of motivational tips and real-life practical advice, The Spender's Guide to Debt-Free Living proves that you don't have to win the lottery or get a new job to change your life.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Story
Erin Skye Kelly wrote Get the Hell Out of Debt after her own struggle to become consumer-debt free. She was tired of listening to middle-aged men in suits tell her to consolidate and refinance her debt when all that seemed to happen was she’d end up in more of it while they profited from it. When Kelly figured out the two most important tools to money management - and started achieving massive results- other women wanted to join in on the debt-free journey. With her sense of humor and straight-shooting sensibilities, Erin began transforming lives.

Great Advice to Pay Off Debt Quickly
Her advice is extreme but thanks to following her plan, I am paying off my student loan 5 years early. It's a fun, interesting listen that really motivated me to pay off my debts. I recommend it to all my friends who also have debt. #Audible1

Extreme advice
Feel that this is very extreme and not sure where she found any joy in her life with giving up absolutely everything. Extreme to selling your car and saving dirty water to flush the toilet. There has to be a better balance. Definitely not any advice I would take. Not realistic at all.
