内容简介 Over and over, people share their fears with David Bach, America’s leading money coach and the number-one national best-selling author of The Automatic Millionaire. “If only I had started saving when I was younger!” they say. “Is there any hope for me?”
There IS hope, and help is here at last!
In Start Late, Finish Rich, David Bach takes the “Finish Rich” wisdom that has already helped millions of people and tailors it specifically to all of us who forgot to save, procrastinated, or got sidetracked by life’s unexpected challenges.
Whether you are in your thirties, forties, fifties, or even older, Bach shows that you really can start late and still live and finish rich – and you can get your plan in place fast. In a motivating, swift read you learn how to ramp up the road to financial security with the principles of spend less, save more, make more – and most important, LIVE MORE. And he gives you the time tested plan to do it.
The Start Late, Finish Rich promise is bold and clear:
Even if you are buried in debt – there is still hope.
You can get rich in real estate – by starting small.
Find your “Latte Factor” – and turbo charge it to save money you didn’t know you had.
You can start a business on the side – while you keep your old job and continue earning a paycheck.
You can spend less, save more and make more – and it doesn’t have to hurt.
David Bach gives you step-by-step instructions, worksheets, phone numbers and website addresses --everything you need to put your Start Late plan into place right away. And he shares the stories of ordinary Americans who have turned their lives around, at thirty, forty, fifty, even sixty years of age, and are now financially free. They did it, and now it’s your turn. With David Bach at your side, it’s never too late to change your financial destiny. It’s never too late to live your dreams. It’s never too late to be free.

编辑推荐 From Publishers WeeklyThe seventh book in seven years of the Finish Rich series (two million in print) is aimed at older readers who have neglected their savings. It reads like an infomercial script, brassily positive and unrelentingly motivational. Anyone can finish rich, says Bach (Automatic Millionaire, etc.), if they are willing to "spend less, save more, and make more." The bulk of the book describes a variety of tactics and strategies (many covered in his previous books) for accomplishing these three tasks. Readers of financial help books will have heard many of Bach's ideas before, but he does deliver a lion's share of solid advice in an entertaining format, and, for good measure, he throws in an occasional counterintuitive gem, such as why paying off credit card debt can be "a huge mistake." He also anticipates and overcomes common objections ("dealing with debt doesn't mean putting the rest of your life on hold"), although anyone impolite enough to push back too hard is dismissed: "I have a term for negative people who seem to enjoy raining on other people's parades. I call them 'dream stealers,' and I try to avoid them."

From AudioFile[Editor's Note: The following is a combined review with the unabridged version of START LATE, FINISH RICH.]--Reading his abridged audio, the TV commentator and author has a magical way of describing good money habits. He's genuinely positive without being glib and offers engaging answers to questions we all have. Bach's plan sounds enormously practical: Buy only what you need, save wisely, work at your debt load until it's gone, and focus on serving your long-range interests. In the unabridged audio, Michael Kramer leaves nothing on the table when it comes to captivating listeners with these ideas. Kramer sounds relaxed and informed as he explains every insight and vocally explores every nuance offered in Bach's excellent writing. Hearing a professional reading of the complete book accentuates its coherence and pacing and allows a longer, more satisfying exposure to Bach's humanitarian intentions. A lesson with immense value for any listener open to creating a brighter future. T.W. ? AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright ?

From BooklistBach (author of The Automatic Millionaire, 2003, and Smart Women Finish Rich, 1999) wants readers to understand that starting late doesn't mean self-flagellation. However, it does demand specific activities, like spending less, saving more, making more, and giving and living more. Inside each chapter, positioned in memorable fashion, are his commandments. The "double latte" factor, for instance, asks about taking control of the smaller daily expenditures, whether it is an everyday Starbucks vente or a weekly Wal-Mart "fix." He talks to the safe-and-steady philosophy of investment, with warnings about trying to time the market. The common thread is his sage insistence of living well during life, not just during retirement. His conclusion is that the "happiest people are those who've lived meaningful lives." Barbara Jacobs
