Format:Paperback
Another informative read by Shay Olivarria. However, the title is misleading. 10 Things College Students Need to Know is not only for students. ANYONE can benefit from the information presented in this easy to read and understand format. I learned a lot of information that will benefit me as I work with my finances. As the other reviewer mentioned, this item makes a great gift. I bought it for my 13 year old son and I am more than convinced that he will benefit from the information. Don't miss out!!

5.0 out of 5 stars What we all need including our youth of today! November 4, 2011
Format:Paperback
If you were never too keen on finances because it just seemed too complicated or you really just knew the basics and nothing else; then you need this book. I can honestly say that the author Shay Olivarria educates you in a very light way. Leaving you feeling happy about options and very much in the know about your next step. I have given this book as presents over and over again and will continue to do so. Not to mention it's not boring, for she has quite the personality which makes the book fun and interesting. You don't have this book? You're missing out!

Until...
