Customer comments on this selection.
 One good chapter
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.
 Same old Same old
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.
 The best book for personal finance
The wall street journal's complete personal finance guidebook is very easy to understand. they wrote this book so every one would be able to under stand personal finance. They have put everything you need to know about investing, budgeting, taxes and much more in this book. I would recommend this book.
Great overview of many aspects of personal finance
I recently took a personal finance class in which everyone in the class was asked to read a book of their choosing and give a presentation on what they learned. After hearing the presentations, I decided to buy this book. It doesn't get down into the details too much, but I felt it offered a great breadth of resources - kind of like a reference book. It doesn't give you specific action plans like many popular press books, but it much more objective, just providing the facts.
Easy to read and Helpful
One of my friend recommended this book. In a week I finished the book. As the book states, it does not come with some super ideas (hard or impossible to implement), instead it gives some helpful hints on many different subjects.
Especially after reading about "Debts" (bad debts), I reconsidered my credit cards and paid (not closed) 2 of them right away, I noticed I was paying huge amount of interest. The book paid itself in the first couple days.
And of course my 410K: I will try to invest more in that one, the facts about pre-tax issues were very helpful.
