I like the way this lady thinks, but her writing style isn't the best, and she's really repetitive. Still, this is one of the few books I've read about money that's been helpful and mind-opening, so I do recommend it.

I loved this book. Completely changed my attitude about money and life. Incredibly inspiring..best book on living a richer life Ive ever read.
This book really is packed with some great insights into money and how we use it.
Lynne Twist first tackles the myths of scarcity and then goes into a discussion of sufficiency. She then moves deeper to talk about concepts like collaboration and legacy. Each concept is illustrated with stories from her many years working around the world with the Hunger Project.
This book really shifted some of my views around money and I think it's a must read for any spiritual seeker.

Always great to re-examine your relationship with money. Wish the author would have spent more time examining her own privileges.
really enjoyed these anecdotes of the beauty money can bring, in addition to the sadness
I really wanted to love this book - and while there are parts that are very thought-provoking - it ended up feeling out of touch and written in another era. The concept of aligning dollars and finances is spot-on and if that’s a new concept for you or something you’re trying to integrate in your life, this is a helpful read. If you’ve already done the work of being more intentional with your dollars and are looking for a resource to help deprogram how we’ve been raised to think about our relationship with money, parts of this will be helpful. However, the good of the book got lost (for me!) in some of the anecdotes that are wrapped in privilege and mostly ignore systemic barriers that contribute to holding people and communities back.
Not a bad read, but definitely worth skimming or skipping certain parts.
