PRAISE FOR THE MILLIONAIRE DEBT-FREE "The Debt-Free Millionaire is a clarion call for a generation that was brought up on spending tomorrow's money today. As someone who spent time in the financial services industry, I can unequivocally state that Anthony's pragmatic and refreshingly contrarian approach to the real secrets of cash-flow managementand leveraging the credit systemare a breath of fresh air in a smog-choked world of misinformation and confusing financial advice. I can think of a million reasons to read it." "Read this book. Do what it says. Start living the dream. If you're ready to take charge of your financial future, this is the place to start." "The Debt-Free Millionaire offers unique insights, little known strategies and easy-to-understand practical tools to first manage then eliminate debt. It is a must read for both consumers and financial professionals to better explain the often complex world of debt management. More like getting sensible advice from a good friend than a technical financial advisor." "Tony has produced a clear and straightforward guide to debt, and how to eliminate it, that is as timely as it is needed. Anyone who follows the program in this book will be glad they did." "Great for readers of all ages and in all financial stages. This isn't one of those get-rich-quick schemes. This book provides a foundation for a paradigm shift in your thinking process and allows for you to see how to achieve the seemingly unachievable. I was hooked from the beginning!"
