this book really is for dummies
If you don't already know this, you really are in trouble. I didn't learn a thing from this book. Terrible.

This review is from: Living Well in a Down Economy For Dummies (Paperback)
First banks started to wobble, then the stock market crashed. Can it be...a coming recession? If so, what could be better timed than a book on how to live well during a down time.
The entire book is an organized plan with how to deal with a recession. First, Barr has you assess your current net worth and shows how to live on a budget. The next section deals with how to get more money: get a better raise, or find a better job, for example. It's the middle section that deals with how to keep your personal finances in good order and learn to live frugally that most people will find handy. There are tips on insurance, health care, how to best manage your 401(k) and many more. Then come the tips on day to day living. He suggests cheap ways to travel, to save on phone bills and how to throw a party on a budget. The last section is what to do if the worst happens and your financial ship seems headed for bankruptcy. A very useful book.

I found this book to be helpful in lots of little ways; there were parts that didn't apply to my situation, but all in all, it really had some great insights into a tough economic time. I liked it!
