The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke
Suze Orman
Rating: 4.5/5 Stars
Rank: 37
If you are tired of struggling to make ends meet but don't know a 401(k)
from Special K, this book is for you. Aimed specifically at "Generation
Broke"--those in their twenties and thirties who are working yet buried in
credit card debt and student loans--this user-friendly guide offers a clear
introduction to practical investing and money management techniques that
can turn even a dismal financial situation around.
Bestselling author Suze
Orman has a knack for taking the fear out of money matters, and in The
Money Book for the Young, Fabulous &: Broke, she shows readers how
to set priorities and achieve goals, whether it is to buy a house or save
for retirement or pay for a child's education.
She also offers inspiration
to readers to face their financial problems and get started on a solution.
After all, there is good news: young people still have the time to correct
problems so that they will never be broke again.
Readers who find terms
such as diversification and IRA rollover scary--or worse,
unimportant--will learn much from this book. In these pages, Orman
clearly and succinctly explains what a FICO score is and why it's so
important, offers the lowdown on stocks and mutual funds, provides career
advice, and offers lots of tips on dealing with student loan debt, saving
money even when times are tight, debt consolidation strategies, and the
safest way for newlyweds to merge their finances.
She also offers
information on credit cards, including why canceling cards is not a good
idea, when it makes sense to use them, and the best strategies for paying
them off. It may not be the only money book you'll ever need, but it's an
excellent place to start. --Shawn Carkonen All About Suze Orman The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous &
