Mary gives us the raw reality of our deadly financial status but empowers us to overcome the obstacles by taking control of our own financial destiny. Every family should have this in their home.

The brilliance of Mary Hunts latest book, 7 Money Rules for Life , is that it is a real story. She tells her story of how she got her family into massive consumer debt and their journey to financial health. 7 Money Rules for Life inspires hope in seemingly hopeless situations and invites people to begin to take steps toward financial health. I can imagine people everywhere reading Marys 7 Money Rules and saying, I can do that!

Mary Hunt entered our life in 2006 and transformed it forever. With the help of Marys rules, our commitment, and the grace of God, we were able to completely rid ourselves of credit card debt. We arent completely debt-free yet but we are getting there day by day and step by step. We have a plan, and it works!

Marys 7 Money Rules for Life reads more like a conversation with a friend than a financial book, and comes from a place of understanding and encouragement. Those floundering in financial distress and wondering how they got there would find this book a great blueprint for how to climb out, create margin, and keep going.
