I'm glad I got this book from the library. Not as horrible as "Save Karyn" because Angela DOES NOT take money from anyone just friends and neighbors. I was laughing right up to about page 20 when the "NYC Debit Card" incident happened. Long story short, she lost me due to her stupidity. Making phonecalls using your debit card (which only had less than $5 in it) and not thinking you weren't going to get charged because there wasn't a sign on the phone is stupid. Angela racked up $300+ in overdraft fees and decided to close her account. Because she was getting direct deposit, she needed to go to a cash-checking agency, blah, blah, blah. I really wanted to enjoy this book because I've been there but I got tired of the situation. Maybe I should stick with books that have titles like "When Stupid People Do Stupid Things." Then I wouldn't have such high expectations.
