Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very Good Condition
It came quickly and was in very good condition. The description said New, but I found a bookmark in it. I'm not complaining as it was very inexpensive and looked new!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Get a Financial Life
This book has become the standard gift for the new graduate from our family. Graduates usually receive money, this book explains the power of saving and smart consumption to young people. In an age when most people can't seem to save and we are all on our own financially, it couldn't happen sooner!





Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Dated but useful.
The tape gives basic principles that are still valid today, though the tape was made several years ago.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just what I was looking for
This book explained everything about personal finance that was previously such a mystery to me. I'm 22, just recently graduated with a new job, and had no idea what to do with money! Now after reading this book, I feel I have a much better understanding of how things work and the options available for investing. I would definitely recommend this book to other people my age just starting out!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Helpful financial advice
This book is packed full of helpful advice on dealing with debt, investing, housing, insurance, taxes, 401(k) plans, and even what papers you need to keep and for how long.
