Absolutely horrible!!,
Don't waste your money on this one. Most of Pond's suggestions are simply ridiculous!! If you want to read a good book on how to live below your means, check out "The Millionaire Next Door"

|Completely Useless,
With tips such as "Don't buy a vacation home" (#65), "Fall in love with someone who is rich" (#431) and "Keep your inspection stickers up-to-date" (followed by a blurb about how he just "found this out the hard way" — #403), this book is good for laughs, but nothing else. You'll be better off getting it from the library, like I did.
If you are REALLY new to frugality, I recommend "Miserly Moms" by Jonni McCoy, which is a good beginner's book. The best yet, is of course, the "Tightwad Gazette" series by Amy Dacyzyn. Get any of these at your local library.

The 1002 way is don't support this guy by buying his book. Whatever happened to old fashioned common sense? that we need some guy to rattle off 1001 expenses we can cut.
