Product Description

Money Sucks! Money Strategies for Real Life (9780977905829): Miryam Gordon, Kaylee McAvoy: Books. Money Sucks is full of straightforward, practical tips for the financially clueless. While many older adults could learn from these financial tips - I didn't know I should be careful about giving my birth date out to inquiring minds - the book is especially helpful for younger adults. Even 16-year-olds have checking accounts, debit cards, and borrow money from their parents for cars, vacations, and prom dates. Now they can learn why it's smart to balance your checkbook, keep track of receipts and due dates for bills, and to know the perils of runaway credit card use. It helps that the book is written with a splash of humor, some fun drawings, and is easy to read. Identity theft is a huge problem today, and this book offers advice on how to monitor your credit rating, protect private information from getting into the wrong hands, and resist the lure of no interest/easy payment options for buying high-priced items. And who among us did not have trouble filling out our income tax withholding form at our first job? Even the other employees - and sometimes the managers - didn't know how to advise us on how to fill in the blanks. Money Sucks gives you a step by step explanation so that you will never again have trouble choosing your options. It's important to learn all you can before you leave the protection of your parents' home. And I recommend that before you earn your first paycheck you read Money Sucks because someday the money you earn - and may lose - will be your own. --YoMama, March 13, 2008 on AmazonThe tag line for this terrific little book captures the essence of Gordon's message: Money Strategies for Real Life. Personal finances can be scary especially for young people newly (or nearly) headed out on their own, or for anyone that finds themselves in over their heads. The logical progression and simple clarity offered in these pages calms the nerves and brings the heart back to a normal rhythm. If you're anxious about any part of personal money management, or know someone who is, hope has arrived! --Leo Muller, Executive Director, CHOICESAnother name for this book could be 'an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.' The best way to avoid bankruptcy is to stay out of trouble in the first place. This book is a great starting point for doing that; follow the tips, learn to budget, pay attention to your money and avoid credit cards and payday loans!! --Ruth Nelson, Bankruptcy Attorney, Seattle, WA
