10.26.14 Update: Still looking for 2-3 more people who would be willing to read a draft and provide some feedback. Please post or send me a PM if you're interested. Thanks!
I enjoy writing almost as much as personal finance and I decided to put together a little project that scratched both itches. The original plan was to write a short, entertaining "handbook" to share with family and friends. After all was said and done my handbook turned into a 100+ page "regular" book. At that point I decided I might as well spend a little more time on it and try to create an actual finished product that could hopefully be enjoyed by more then just my family.
Here's where I need some mustachian help. Most of you will probably agree with most of the content of the book as it aligns with my generally mustachian views. It's a bit irreverent and meant to be a good split between entertainment and actual financial advice, aimed at people that wouldn't normally be able to stomach a whole book on PF. What I need are a few volunteers to read it and give some honest feedback. I don't need help with grammar or design, that will come later. What I'm looking for is feedback on topic choices, ease of reading, is it entertaining or not, are there areas that are or would be confusing to people, etc.
I'm not going to post the whole thing yet, I would prefer to send it to a few people, maybe 10, through PM or Email.
If you're interested in helping me with this project please post and let me know. Also, I would love, love, love, if there was anyone who's been involved in or has written a book before who was willing to help out.
I've attached a short excerpt for the book for everyone to preview. Feel free to leave any feedback.
Thank you all!!
