Most in the United States have a tendency to spend more than they earn. Consquently they end up paying hugh amounts in interest on money borrowed. This book turns this way of life around so the average consumer can save money, get rid of debt and even achieve a higher standard of living while spending less and saving more. Highly recommended reading for those just graduating and starting life. For those who have slipped into over spending this book will show you the way to turn your life around and achieve financial success.

Another Money Smarts publication succinctly written by noted financial author, Dr. David Logan Scott, is entitled The Guide to Saving Money. Throughout the 200-pages, Dr. Scott has outlined numerous practical pointers toward controlling a larger portion of one's own financial pie. Particularly relevant, I thought, were the suggestions in dealing with the selection of a new vehicle and the options available in purchasing its extended warranty. Utilizing the author's sensible, prudent tips may result in expanding one's cash flow while simultaneously s-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g the dollar bill. The Guide to Saving Money-an investment for today!

It's a very intuitive book that don't explore very much on mathematics but gives a very good idea about how are things in portfolio management. I recommend it for undergraduates and for portfolio management first approach students.

This fascinating, well-written little volume is investing made easy for those of us who aren't Warren Buffet, and may even be "investing-challenged." With excellent analogies and anecdotes drawn from his puttering around the garden, the author makes the seemingly daunting task of what to do with one's - and one's family's - cherished and hard-earned savings seem not only less paralyzing, but even fun. And since the author writes informatively not only about finances but about gardening, it's a terrific "two-fer." Quite simply, it's the best investment I ever made.

I loved this little book!
I tend to be rather daunted by numbers in general and financial statements in particular, but this book discusses the basics of investing in terms of gardening -- tending the soil, planting the seed, waiting for the harvest -- rather than in terms of things that make my eyes glaze over. I've never heard investing described in this way, but it really helped me understand so much!
