I bought this book a few years ago after having bought and read other personal finance guides. I found it to be well written, well organized and easy to read. It gave me great practical information for how to start investing/saving with very little money and because of this book I finally got the nerve to do just that. I have always been a financially organized person but this book gave me information that helped me grow from being just organized to being savvy too. It has had a great impact on my life and I am buying a few copies to share with friends. I think this book would be especially good for people who want to invest soon and just don't know how to get started. I highly recommend it!

This book is helping me organize my finances. I love it! It talks about different ways to budget. There are a lot of commonsense principles, but there are methods of budgeting and investing which I hadn't considered. People seem to be taking all of the suggestions and following them religiously. I take small grains of wisdom and try to apply them one at a time. It seems to be working.

Not impressed, tho I must admit she is more fun to read than Queen Orman. If you possess 30 cents worth of commonsense then this book says nothing new; not even in a new and exciting way.
You are much better off to find a book entitled:
Money Is My Friend
