It's Time to Become a Competitive Consumer

01/08/2013

Brad Wilson has earned over 5 million frequent flyer miles, stayed two weeks in one of the nicest hotels in Europe for free, gets 50% off his iPhone and plan, and would never consider getting a mortgage from his bank. He shares his secrets in his first book, Do More, Spend Less: The New Secrets of Living the Good Life for Less (Wiley; ISBN: 978-1-1185-1855-7; $17.95; January 2013, Paperback & E-book).

From the past 10 years of his life, Brad offers more than 50 real-life money saving examples from travel to retail, and personal finance. Do More, Spend Less takes readers beyond the great deals Brad shares daily on BradsDeals.com, which has saved 19 million consumers more than $200 million in the past year.

Brad has traveled the world for free, grown his credit score from 400 to almost 800, and can buy a new car for 25% off. This book is a game plan for consumers to get off the default path, turn the tables on the banks, airlines, hotels, cell phone companies and retailers and win in the great game being played for their hard earned cash. Other money saving examples shared in the book, include:

  • How Brad got a 40,000 trip to Australia and New Zealand almost for free
  • Turning coins into a million miles (or how Brad made the government $2 Million)
  • Coupons with no threshold (or why Brad owns a closet of Brooks Brother’s clothes he wouldn’t have bought otherwise)
  • How to save $312 in 13 minutes every 6 months

Brad wants to re-teach how to be a consumer from the ways he has learned while being able to live life to the fullest, and save tons of time and money. Brad shares why consumers should never buy an Apple product from the Apple store, details how to spend three weeks in a suite at the Park Hyatt Paris for $20, and shares the unknown way to clean up a credit report and add at least 20 points to the score.

The entire basis for thinking about how best to shop, spend, travel, bank are essentially all aspects of being a consumer and Brad Wilson has shifted how consumers should behave. Do More, Spend Less shows readers how to ultimately master their savings.
