This is a very informative and helpful book that should be required reading for all young adults starting out
Wow! I did not expect a book titled Debt 101 to be this interesting and educational. But was I wrong. The book thoroughly explores the concept of Debt objectively and subjectively. It takes about all kind of debts be it payday loans or bank loans or the most common student loans. The thoroughness with which each type of loan is covered is awesome. One comes out almost 90% knowledgeable after reading this book and will be able to evaluate their loan options better. I highly recommend this book to anyone going especially someone who lacks basic knowledge of loans and debt. I particularly liked the chapter on Student loans. I wish this book had come out when I was taking loans out for my medical school. I probably would have saved bunch of money and made educated decisions rather than financial representative at the school tell me where to sign.
Overall, I highly highly recommend this book especially to students.
This is a great resource for helping to manage debt. It provides tons of information that is easy to understand. It is not necessary to read straight thru to find information. Instead, the author makes it easy for you to jump around to specific areas to find information that you are most interested in. And you don’t have to have a business degree to understand it. This would make a great gift for a teenager or a graduate, whether high school or college, to provide them with an overall understanding of what debt is and how to manage it. Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book.
