Customer Reviews

This book made me money!

What more do you want from a book? With my daughter getting ready to go to college, I flipped immediately to the section on "Smart Bucks: Planning for College Online." There, the author laid out the whole process for me in detail and pointed out where I needed to go to on the web. Even though we don't qualify for financial aid, I found a student loan and a small grant! Next, I plan to tackle investments with the help of this practical guide. This book is not just a collection of websites, as naysayers have complained. It shows you the financial reasoning behind your web searches, something no search engine will ever do. Thank you, Ms. Sindell. Enthusiastically recommended.

Additionally, I now have a good idea of how the Internet can help me make my money work hard than ever before. I really liked the way this book is organized. The format made it easy to go back and reference important points.
