 An Outstanding Guide to Personal Finance |
| Review Date: May 21, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Daniel Kent, Carmel, Indiana |
| I have taught personal finance at a small liberal arts college and have used this book as the model for the class. An outstanding guide that provides an excellent range of topics. A must read for young adults who will be dealing with finances and monies shortly. |
great book for the absolutely clueless (like me)

| Reviewer: C. Kubly, New York |
| This is a very informative book written in easy to understand terminology. This should be REQUIRED reading in every high school in the U.S. I wish I had this information when I started working. It would have been helpful before I bought my house, and is still very useful as I plan my retirement savings. |
One good chapter

| Reviewer: TTP3317, Arlington, TX |
| For me, this book has one good chapter, its about debt; otherwise this is just an average book. I've read six money managment books this summer. I liked this one the least. I just bought four more copies of Jane Bryant Quinn's SMART AND SIMPLE FINANCIAL STRATEGIES FOR BUSY PEOPLE to give to my young adult children, its the best of the six books I read. |

| Reviewer: Gene S, L.A., CA |
| This is a good book if you're in high school, but for those of us who have graduated from college, we already know this stuff. I recommend Graham's book (also coveted by Warren Buffet) and The Model Rules of Personal Finance for Professionals (American Bar Association 2008) for understanding how to manage your financial life and how to invest. |
