I purchased this book as well as FREE college and training money for women. Both books provide TONS of resources but you will need time to sift through them to determine your eligbility. However the books are HUGE let downs in that they have duplicate information, not only on the pages of each book itself, but both of them carry identical programs or information. They simply changed the print and layout of the books. My best advice is to buy whichever of Mr. Lesko's books you beleive is best suited to your own situation, and save your money, don't purchase any others. You will only get repeat information.

This is an awesome book. We get $10 off on our phone bill a MONTH!! From a program that the phone company never tells you about. Got $2,000 in weatherizing our home. I have also helped our friends purchase a home they never thought they would get with the programs in this book. And other little things just to save money to many to list. This book is loaded with tons of programs from the government! Its an awesome book and I already got my money back from it and much more. I am very happy with this book and I am going to buy another!

Although I fit the catagory of being a "busy mom", I had a very hard time finding anything in this book that I could benefit from. Much of the book is filled with opportunities for those in a low-income bracket meeting the criteria for government subsidies. For people in that situation, this book would be a wonderful resource - and is well researched. Between the asssistance for low-income families, senior citizens, those seeking lovers and cheap abortions I found little I could apply to my life. The book also could be organized better. An enormous amount of information is given without any way to sift through it and find the opportunities that one would qualify for.

This book is great. I sent it to my mom for her to use in her classroom, and she found great things for her grandchildren. Excellent resource for activities, money for private schools, you name it. Definatley worth the money!

I picked this book up at the library and kept it over my time limit -- this book has a lot of useful info in it not to mention which agencies you need to refer to in your own state like dept of higher education, transportation dept and many more. If help is what your looking for then you are starting on the right track w/ this book

This book has some great insight. There are some programs that I was unaware take place. I can recommend programs to family and friends. Also it's great to get free or discounted items for busy moms!

Our favorite government spaz appears to have branched into the categories of parents! This book was published in 1999, so alot of the information may be outdated. Oh well, at least he's not screaming in my face during a commercial to buy this book!

This is a big book in every sense of the word. Loads of pages,loads of facts,loads of lists of free stuff, etc. It never lets down even for a moment, though. From the first page to the last it's lively, entertaining and highly informative. Most of all, it's great fun. My mother and her sister took turns asking each other questions from this book as we drove across country last week. Over 2,500 miles and we almost hated for the trip to end. But it made it easy for us to look forward to the long drive back. Moms are Really Busy but not for this great book...
