As an attorney that has worked in bankruptcy, I think this is a great book for people to read whether you have an overt interests in finances. Jim Cobb describes and analyze historical financial situations in a way that makes it easy for anyone to understand. Mr. Cobb is also able to make seem interesting for those that are not about to read about finances outside of work (guilty). His use of language keeps you engaged on a topic that would be dry for most people.

I found a lot of skills to utilize in my own life and advise to clients that are trying to get a better hold on their finances or build up their finances after bankruptcy. Mr. Cobb is knowledgeable and practical without being preachy in his skills. He is straightforward in the facts and strategies. It is like a survival for finances after everything is decimated. His advice is practical and worth every penny. Take it with a grain of salt in the sense is that you can bring the horse to water but you can't make the horse drink. It is up to you to utilize the skills and strategies that Mr. Cobb lays out. Put yourself on firm financial footing. Even utilizing some of this will put you at a better place financially. So many people rely on credit cards these days, this book is a good way to put your eggs in a different basket.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great addition to a prepping library

I’ve read a couple of Jim Cobb’s other books like Prepper’s Complete Book of Disaster Readiness and Countdown to Preparedness, and this new book about prepping your finances for a possible economic collapse is a great addition to the collection. He talks very frankly about what an economic collapse might look like in the future and what similar situations have happened in the past, citing such events as the Great Depression and the recession of the late 2000s, among others. Cobb makes the excellent point that in the event of a collapse, it won’t matter how full your bank account is or how high your credit limit: there’s a good chance those things will become completely worthless. So he gives an excellent list of other ways to invest your money (“diversification”), such as precious metals and gemstones—including their exact worth and how to determine what’s a good value—other foreign currencies, and skills and objects you can barter and trade after traditional paper money is no longer useful.

The second half of the book goes into more traditional prepping advice such as homesteading and working toward self-sufficiency, but still with a financial slant. Jim Cobb is one of the most authoritative voices in the world of preparedness, and more people would do well to take his advice and get control of their finances now, before disaster strikes. This book is a great start in that direction for anyone interested in making sure they’re not victims in the future.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting strategies for being financially self sufficent

This is a great book for people who are preparing to live a self-sufficient life style. It has valuable information you need to be self sufficient financially when the financial market collapses. It doesn’t suggest the traditional methods for financial security, but some untraditional methods. I can understand some of the methods, collecting coins, gems, gold and silver. Burying your money, might be too untraditional for me. Bartering items you have and services you can provide are other ways to because financially independent. Some of those things can be done even if we are not in a financial collapse. Items that you should have on hand to barter with can expire, so you would have to method to rotate your supplies.
This book was easy to read, it was written in a very casual way. It was like he was talking with you face to face, one-on-one, a friend giving you advice. This book is more than just a financial strategy for the when the next financial collapse happens. It helps you plan out how to live a self-sufficient life from putting meat on your table to buying precious metals and gems.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prepper's Guide Fun!

I bought this book for my dad- I plan to give it to him for Father’s Day in a few months. My dad loves financial planning, and he is also incredibly interested in the future of the States if there is a big economic collapse or technological difficulty (his favorite show is Revolution). I thought this would be great to combine his two great hobbies! The book starts with some really interesting, if not slightly intimidating, information about previous economic collapses. The book tells you what kind of things would be good to trade in this future and gives you idea for bartering: precious metals, consumables, and my favorite suggestion- vices. It also mentions useful skills you can barter for- sadly, I don’t have too many skills the book finds useful, except for cooking and candle-making. It has a lot of really fun information about this possible future and ways we will adjust. It also has good tips for living in our current state- things like ways to reduce credit card debt and ways to reduce costs of food. Occasionally, this book can get slightly condescending, but it is overall a fun and unique book. I know my dad is going to love it- I wish June would hurry up and get here so I can give it to him!
