Good information and broken down into thoughtful ways. Very practical but felt it was still kind of lacking (then again I’m comparing it to your money or your life). Overall, good book for people trying to get their finances in order.

This book is really accessible and helpful for beginners in personal finance like me. It is written in an easily understandable manner and I enjoyed answering the questions included at the end of a topic. It encouraged me to really look at my personal finance and plan my life accordingly.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this personal finance workbook. It helped me work through my vague anxieties about financial planning which essentially had me avoiding looking at my expenses and avoiding budgets. It was clearly written, well laid out and well thought out. Some of the information is specific to the USA which didn't hamper my enjoyment even though I don't live there. The principles translate across the seas.

Such a handy workbook. Each chapter is short and easy to read. Throughout the book you are given worksheet tasks to complete. In the back of the book, they did a great job of listing valuable resources. It would make a good gift for a young adult.

This book serves as a great starting point for anyone who's looking to take control of their personal finances. It also helps you reframe your thoughts and change your mindset on money. It covers all the basics such as budgeting, debt management, buying a house, insurance, planning for retirement, and investing. The value in the book is the practical application exercises that make you think about how you're handling your money and how you might want to make adjustments to create a more prosperous future! I hope that one day our school systems will start using books like this to teach students the basics about money.

This is a helpful and informative guide to learning how to budget.
I’m a student, and I’ve been really struggling with learning how to properly budget in a way that works for me and my fiancé, and this book was a great way to put things into perspective.
The activities in the book are informative and intuitive, very easy to follow and yet very eye opening.
I’d recommend this to anyone who’s learning how to budget!
