Amazon.com Review
If you are tired of struggling to make ends meet but don't know a 401(k) from Special K, this book is for you. Aimed specifically at "Generation Broke"--those in their twenties and thirties who are working yet buried in credit card debt and student loans--this user-friendly guide offers a clear introduction to practical investing and money management techniques that can turn even a dismal financial situation around. Bestselling author Suze Orman has a knack for taking the fear out of money matters, and in The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous &: Broke, she shows readers how to set priorities and achieve goals, whether it is to buy a house or save for retirement or pay for a child's education. She also offers inspiration to readers to face their financial problems and get started on a solution. After all, there is good news: young people still have the time to correct problems so that they will never be broke again. Readers who find terms such as diversification and IRA rollover scary--or worse, unimportant--will learn much from this book.

In these pages, Orman clearly and succinctly explains what a FICO score is and why it's so important, offers the lowdown on stocks and mutual funds, provides career advice, and offers lots of tips on dealing with student loan debt, saving money even when times are tight, debt consolidation strategies, and the safest way for newlyweds to merge their finances. She also offers information on credit cards, including why canceling cards is not a good idea, when it makes sense to use them, and the best strategies for paying them off. It may not be the only money book you'll ever need, but it's an excellent place to start. --Shawn Carkonen

4 out of 5 stars Excellent book for anyone!   January 9, 2009
This book helped me a lot. It explained things in a way that I could understand them, without all the financial lingo mumbo-jumbo. This book is good for anyone young or old that needs some helpful tips on savings, credit, and investing. Thanks Suze!


5 out of 5 stars Fabulous   January 6, 2009
Every student in college should read this book. I read it twice in one week, then passed it on to my boyfriend and my friends. We are all now very interested in our finances and together, plan our financial futures. We are MUCH more secure for what lies in store for us. Thank you, Suze. You make everything so simple to comprehend.


5 out of 5 stars required reading   December 21, 2008
Great book with tons of information. This should be required reading for all High School and College Graduates.


4 out of 5 stars I'm not an idiot...   December 20, 2008
As far as informational content, this book is great. I really think it contains everything a 20-something needs to get onto the right track financially. I also like that it integrates with the website to give you more personalized advice.

However, the jaunty, somewhat condescending tone throughout the book REALLY irks me. I can't help but feel talked down to when she's constantly saying things like "I know you've been too uninspired to figure out how a Roth IRA works." Stop telling me why I'm financially ignorant. Just give me the information.

Also, the book and website sometimes contradict one another. The book tells me that with my age and health status, I don't really need life insurance... while the website keeps exhorting me to Protect My Family.



5 out of 5 stars Useful Book   December 16, 2008
As a young professional, this book was so helpful in explaining all the different financial terms and situations that are introduced to people in their early 20s. If you are over 30, this book might not be as useful. But I really learned from it!
