The Money Book was written to address the specific financial reality that young people face today, and it offers a set of real, not impossible, solutions to the problems at hand and the problems ahead. An Emmy-award winner, Orman is the author of four consecutive New York Times® bestsellers, The 9 Steps to Financial Freedom, The Courage to Be Rich, The Road to Wealth, and The Laws of Money, the Lessons of Life. Shawn Carkonen All About Suze Orman The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke is financial expert Suze Orman's answer to a generation's cry for help. It may not be the only money book you'll ever need, but it's an excellent place to start.

She also offers information on credit cards, including why canceling cards is not a good idea, when it makes sense to use them, and the best strategies for paying them off. In these pages, Orman clearly and succinctly explains what a FICO score is and why it's so important, offers the lowdown on stocks and mutual funds, provides career advice, and offers lots of tips on dealing with student loan debt, saving money even when times are tight, debt consolidation strategies, and the safest way for newlyweds to merge their finances. Readers who find terms such as diversification and IRA rollover scary-or worse, unimportant-will learn much from this book. After all, there is good news: young people still have the time to correct problems so that they will never be broke again.

She also offers inspiration to readers to face their financial problems and get started on a solution. Bestselling author Suze Orman has a knack for taking the fear out of money matters, and in The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous &: Broke, she shows readers how to set priorities and achieve goals, whether it is to buy a house or save for retirement or pay for a child's education.
