Rating: Summary: Reader Review: This is a great book that young people interested in their personal finances can relate to. Easy to read and presents many investing options with step by step instructions on what to do if you are still confused. It even includes a script for exactly what to ask for when calling investment firms. I would recommend it to everyone, you can never be too young to read this book because time is of essence. Would make a great graduation gift!
Rating: Summary: This book blows! Review: Why wasn't this book around 25 years ago. It's cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars!!! Seriously, the book is great. I picked it up at the local library's booksale for $.50 (Ha! I learn fast). While aimed at the 20-30 something crowd, where it's advice will do the most good, (time really IS money, apparently) it does have a slew of practical "secret's" that will save anyone with patience and commonsense from uberconsumerism. It's quick pace, short chapters and witty writing style pretty much ensures that when I pass this book on to my 24 year old son he'll actually read the thing (or else!).
