You Get a Good Return on Your Time and Money from This Book!,
By Donald Mitchell "Jesus Loves You!" (Thanks for Providing My Reviews over 110,000 Helpful Votes Globally) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 100 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Never Balance Your Checkbook on Tuesday: And 300 More Financial Lessons You Can't Afford Not to Know (Paperback)
Nancy Dunnan has taken 300 important and valuable personal finance lessons and made them fun, easy and interesting to read. Although some of these things you know already, it's not a bad idea to be reminded. In other areas, you'll either get new ideas or better ways to implement them.Here are some of my favorites: You can save money on international air travel by being an air courier (if you can live with carry-on baggage), and she provides a telephone number to get assignments. While abroad, use your ATM card to get cash rather than your credit card. The credit card will start charging you interest right away. To use that ATM card in many countries you need a 4 digit PIN code. Be sure to change to one before you leave home. On the other hand, buying things abroad with a credit card is a good idea because you get a better exchange rate that way than by converting currency. Want a beach home? Buy it in January in North America. There's a service you can contact to find someone to pay your parents' bills when they can no longer do so, and they live far away. You can save money by letting vines crawl up a trellis rather than your home. If your bank is taken over by another one, switch your account to a credit union. Fees will be lower, and the rates paid on your savings will be lower. Shop with 20 friends, and you can probably get extra discounts. She shows you how to get rid of junk mail. Be sure to check the register tape at stores that scan items. A 10 percent error rate is not unusual. If you have student loans, she has lots of information about how to gain advantages in paying them back. If you are near retirement, she has lots of good data on Social Security and tax issues. If you take a cruise, be sure to buy any on-board gifts at the end of the trip (big discounts come then). If you have too much debt, she can point you to those who can help you. With this book, your money can take you much further. You'll also be proud of yourself for being a more intelligent consumer. So overcome your misconception stalls about how to get the most for your money with this book!

It's small and handy and I refer to it all the time. I even took down some notes in the margin.
