Review Quotes:
“A thoughtful, insightful, and memorable read, author Steven J. Spence’s Money Plain & Simple is a must-read non-fiction book of the year, and a contender for best book on finances on my site. The engaging way the author relays the narrative and sets out to show readers how big banking and wealthy elites have secured their financials through manipulation of the market was something we all should take into account in our future finances.” - Anthony Avina, Top North American Book Reviewer
“This is a history lesson that begins with gold and silver, progresses through the myriad channels of manipulation in various economies, the banking system in the US, inflation, deflation, and how these influence ‘money’, and the transition to digitalization – of life, and of course, money. Spence makes it all understandable, and in doing so prepares us well for the future of economics and the monetary systems that are coming.” - Grady Harp, Top 100 Amazon Book Reviewer
“The title of the book says it all. Steve Spence lays everything down in layman’s terms so that we who can’t or don’t take the time to understand the financial system can. He lays out the reality of how this world’s financial system enslaves us by giving us the impression that we can buy whatever we desire, on credit, therefore, keeping us in constant debt and enslaved to this monetary system. Steve Spence gives us this understanding that we lack to help us make our money work for us. He captures our attention in the most humorous way, which for the most part is what keeps us on the hook as we read.” - Maria Vega, Amazon reader
