Book excerpt: Myth Breakers is chartered with analyzing the current myths in society & documenting misconceptions, where appropriate. In this book, they have analyzed the concepts of home ownership, renting & saving money. It is filled with easy-to-understand examples analyzing various rent-vs-buy situations, concluding in some cases that it could be more economical to rent & save than to own. The goals of the book are to: 1) break the myths of home ownership, 2) put a "rational" approach back into home buying, & to 3) stop renters from feeling like second-class citizens. This is done by simplifying the rent-vs-buy analysis & focusing the reader's attention on both the financial & non-financial reasons for home ownership. The spreadsheets, which can be purchased directly by the reader, help the user to conduct their own analysis. They are not necessary to benefit from the concepts in the book. The purpose is not to dissuade the reader from purchasing a home, but to give the reader the information necessary to either: 1) purchase a home for the "right" reasons or to 2) rent & save a significant amount of money. The book is $14.95. The spreadsheets are $19.95 (book is required). P&H is $3 for the first item, $1 for each additional item. California residents add sales tax.
