Take your steady out for that $350 dinner after the big promotion. You might just have to eat PB&J for a week to make it happen. Splurge when it makes sense. Buy the designer jeans you can’t live without in your size, at full price. But you better walk away from last season’s must-have sweater, even if it is 75 percent off! Make more money with your money. Invest in stocks to make the big bucks and start saving for retirement now. You want to be debt-free in your swinging sixties. Have it all . . . just not all at once. Want a Mercedes more than anything in the world? You can make it happen . ..but probably not while sharing a summer beach house with your friends. Finally a savvy, realistic finance book for those of us who love our Starbucks mocha lattes and Razr cell phones but don’t want our Jimmy Choo shoes or Bose headphones buried under a pile of burgeoning debt. Twenty-something financial reporter Farnoosh Torabi tells you that you can satisfy your sophisticated tastes and achieve financial bliss. The key: prioritizing your expenses according to what you want the most—splurging when you can and saving on other things. From sensible grocery shopping (yes, you can have your organic yogurt and eat it, too!) to cyberbanking, empower yourself to live a guilt-free, Gucci- and gadget-clad good life without sacrificing financial security. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - good for the really really immature and totally new to finance youngstersI first saw this book in a Chinese version in a local bookstore. But since I prefer reading in English on my e-device, I bought this version. First, this book should include more clearly in their description how this book only works for people in the States. I, being in a foreign country, does not deal with the same tax or insurance issues. Most of the chapters were just useless to me. Second, what she writes in this book is really very very very basic.

It's simple for anyone to understand and gives good basic advice. Love it! Rating:  - Started out good...but in the end was really disappointedThe first chapter of this book was great; the author has great voice and easily got me hooked. The personal stories are a nice way to make an otherwise dry subject more interesting and entertaining. But as you read the book you find that the author's advice is really just plain common sense. What I really stated to dislike was when she would constantly contradict herself. In one chapter she would say not to buy things on sale and then in another she would say how it's a good thing to buy things on ...

Excellent tips and guides you into the debt-free part of society. It's really up to you whether you stay there or not. Written in understandable terms that give it a warm sense to it.
