A Book A Week #43-How To Survive the Economic Meltdown

Patrick Morley wrote a book called  The Man in the Mirror.  I think he’s pretty famous for that.

This is a short book with a lot of good advice.  It’s not just about economics.  Morley gives some good tips for coping with any life-altering crisis, but frames it within the current economic troubles.  Granted, a lot of his advice is common sense, but when you are going through a huge crisis, common sense sometimes takes a backseat to panic, unclear thinking, and fight or flight response.

What I also like is that while Morley does allude to his other products, this isn’t a disguised catalog for his Man in the Mirror line of self-help items that you can sometimes find in other prolific author’s tendencies.

It’s an easy read.  You can knock it out in an afternoon.
