Planning Your Financial Future Review

The book isn't bad... a little dry, but fairly easy to understand and gives you some good tips about financial planning, etc.

Financial Planning

This is an excellent book for anyone who wants to learn basic principles about money management including estate planning and retirement.PLANNING FOR YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE is well organized, easy to read and understand! The authors explain and illustrate good examples of worksheets for each topic; the book also includes additional blank worksheets in the back of the book.Other topics include: housing, insurance (car, life, and medical), stock market, transportation, retirement, estate planning, etc. A disk is included with sample template files to enable the user to prepare numerous worksheets using EXCEL. Examples of templates: budget, income statement, balance sheets, future value of money, loan payments, estate planning.My students (Ages 17 and up--even older adults)love this book because of its importance to their personal lives and their financial future. They never return this book to the bookstore during "buyback"; they tell me that they will keep it as a great resource. I AGREE!
