Once we were Debt Free (and loving it!), A and I decided that we should "Pay It Forward" to our friends and family. The best way we figured we could do this was to get everybody to read "The Total Money Makeover" and came up with the idea to purchase books to pass on to people. We waited until they went on sale and purchased five copies of the book and started handing them out to anybody who asked or anybody who listened to our experience and wanted to be debt free, too.
Our rules: Take the book and keep it as long as you needed to but you needed to be working on getting debt free and building wealth. Once you were debt free (or bought your own copy), you could pass it on to somebody else or return it to us. However, if you were not actively doing The Total Money Makeover, you needed to return the book to us, so we could pass it on to somebody who would use it.
As of today, all five copies of the books our on loan! I hope they are all getting closer to that debt free success!
