Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Debt-Free Living In 3 Steps
Terence Thornton · 2020
55/100
👎 Skip It
Terence Thornton grounds this in his own true story of climbing out of six figures of debt, and the plain-language, no-jargon approach is a genuine plus for readers who find finance books alienating. Still, it's one person's path dressed up as a universal three-step framework, and there's no independent read on how well the execution actually holds up.
