“I was hoping to read a financial planning book without going cross-eyed and numb-brained by the first chapter, and Orman delivered. The more I read, the more I was hooked. (I really knew this book was for me when I got to the phrase ‘Screw Budgets’ in the chapter on saving.)”
“For the first time, someone managed to write a book aimed at a non-baby boomer generation without ‘talking down’ or resorting to slang. With the exception of calling us ‘YF&Bers’ – young, fabulous & broke – Orman’s tone is adult, informative and concise.”
“The book is set up perfectly for those of us short on time, money and attention span. Each chapter begins with a quick reference page of what it contains.”
“Then you have the “Lowdown,” Orman’s roundup of basic information she feels we need to make the best decisions. This is great. Everything I read, I understood.”
“What I like best is the variety that this book covers. Everything from debt management, to savings and investing, to retirement planning, to big-ticket purchases. It’s all here, and it’s all clear.”
“Plus, if you buy the book, you gain access to the YF&B Web site, which includes even more information and financial help tools – for free.
Orman calls us “Generation Debt,” and she’s not wrong.
“‘The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke’ is one thing that can help us on our way to becoming ‘Generation Loaded.’”
