Review

This is for everyone looking to simplify their lives, and save money doing so. Great advice from the author to surrender the cleaning and organizing to focus on friends, family and experiences. As she smartly quotes, there are no U-hauls behind hearses.- Sharon K. NYC, NYI got married last year and my family continues to grow! I learned a lot from this book and was able to implement some of the author's tips right away. I think one of my favorite theories is the fact that you really only have to clean 1 day a month - who knew?! There are even power saving and money saving techniques. Definitely great for a newlywed to start practicing these things now. Recommended.-Lauren Cleavland, OH

I enjoyed reading the book, but doubt it will spur me to buy others. It was a quick read, but didn't grab me!

I usually only review a book when I think it is really good, but I couldn't let people waste their time or money on this one. I am glad that I got it for free.
The spelling and grammatical errors are on every page! Frequently while reading I had to re-read the sentence to try to figure out what she was trying to say. In a few spots I never could figure it out. I would be embarrassed to publish a book with so many blatant errors!
The content of the book had me shaking my head and wondering what planet she is from every other page. She says that with the money she saved on not eating out, she was able to hire someone to clean her kitchen. This book is supposed to be about downsizing, not finding ways to spend more money! This is only one example of ways she spends unnecessary money.
Many of her 50 items were not even staying with the subject. She obviously stuck several items in there just to bring the total to 50.
With my own experience of being a wife for almost 15 years and a mother for 14, I could write a much better book than this.

I try to simplify my life by getting rid of things I don`t need and eliminating all but the essential. And I am always looking for new tips and ideas for living frugally. Although there can be no step-by-step guide to declutter your life - 50 Things to Know to Downsize Your Life is a good starting point and a really useful resource. As always Lisa provides invaluable advice and ideas from editing closets, drawers and rooms, to saving money on food, clothing or electricity bills.
If you want to free up time for the important stuff, do the things you love and spend time with the people you love - you will love this book!

Helpful Ideas for Downsizing

Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2014

Verified Purchase

When you have lots of ‘stuff’ it is hard to look at life without all those things. However, this author makes intelligent suggestions about how to repurpose, recycle, donate and sell excess items.

She also had a bonus section on saving money on electricity. I particularly liked her suggestions for saving energy on the things that run even when we are not using them (instant-on TV’s come to mind).

Lisa Rusczyk gave me new ways to look at things I own. Armed with this new knowledge, I plan to implement one idea each day to begin downsizing.

Some good tips but the ridiculous number of typos and grammatical errors really turned me off. I can't finish it.

Good Information

Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2013

Some of the ideas presented are basic common sense, but there are some really good ones I hadn't thought of before. I'm discovering that paying cash for what I buy keeps me from over-spending and secure in knowing no one's going to come get it if I have trouble paying for it. That alone has made my life much easier and more simple.
