    I never read Obseesion but I thought the other two were intresting and full of information while still following a story like type of flow.

    I'll have to see if they're on Audible and put them on my wish list.
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"
