Finally, a financial advice book that addresses the specific financial concerns of the single parent! And with all the biblically-founded financial wisdom that Larry Burkett is famous for. This book is full of strategies on how to stretch your money, and includes specific guidelines for setting up a budget. My finances are still a mess, but with the help of this book, I'm straightening it out. I only wish I had it several years ago. The only negative thing that I noticed is that it didn't seem (to me) to adequately address the expense of child care, which is probably the biggest concern of the single parent. But it is well worth the money, I'm getting a lot of use out of it.

Not even about finances at all. Waste of time.

When I purchased the book I thought that I would be receiving a book that talked about finances for the single parent. However, it is more of a book with very basic fatherly-like advice. While it may have given some well intentioned advice it really said nothing significant about finance at all. In fact, the other thing that even resembles finance was the chapter on making budgets. Which consequently, has nothing to do with a single parent. Again, the author may be a wise and very kind person but if you want to know about finances for a single parent, this is not the one for you.
