Money: Save It, Manage It, Spend It

Rating:
Summary: Pretty didactic and unrealistic
Review: .... One of the major downfalls is itsincomprehensiveness. The six chapters are divided into an introductionabout value, goals, options for managing money, saving money (2chapters), and controlling spending. Although the author coverstopics like credit cards, CDs, debt, checks, etc, they aren't giventhe amount of attention I believe required by today's society. Thebulk of the book describes very detailed budgeting, spending, andsaving methods which are too complicated for the age grouptargeted. .... One useful attribute besides the index and glossary isthe forms for copying which help track income and budget money. It isa pretty useful book if there isn't much literature out there on thistopic.
