"Wow! I downloaded the book from her website for free, and I read the majority of this book within about 6 hours. It's structured so that you can read what's immediately applicable to your personal situation and skim through what's not. I recommend this for everyone. Much of it's common sense, but she demystifies retirement and other investments accounts and underscores their importance, especially in times like this. Finally, she ends the book with a note of optimism."

    " I think this book would be really helpful if you hava a lot of credit card debt. We have no credit cards, so not very helpful. "

  • Overall Performance: 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5

    " Suze does a good job of covering major financial aspects such as how to get out of credit card debt, how to save up for college and how to do that, etc. Some parts didn't apply while others did. Even if one knows a lot about finances, it wouldn't hurt to review information. "

    " I got this a free download from Oprah and was able to quickly read it. While I think this book will help a lot of people, because of its Q&A format, there wasn't a lot in here applicable to our situation. I prefer Dave Ramsey for financial advice, although Suze is a solid choice. "

    — Christina, 2/13/2014
  • Overall Performance: 2 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 5

    " A quick little read, with questions/scenarios in bold face followed by straight to the point answers. It is as though Suzy is having a conversation with you. Includes a budget worksheet. I highlighted several of her suggestions for followup. "

    " This is a very basic financial book but one that uplifts and doesn't overwhelm. This is the first I've read from Suze Orman and I think I will look into others she has written. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " Some helpful tips, but so much of it is aimed at those with kids, or those who were unwise with mortgages, or those who are retiring soon. Some good budget-planning suggestions and such; very short so very quick read. "

    " It's an entry level book regarding financing, as she likes to speak for the masses. She also constantly repeats how you shouldn't touch your retirement accounts to pay off debt. "
