Customer Reviews

The Road To Wealth

I just picked up this paperback version of Suze's best selling hardback book of 2001. In The Road To Wealth, Suze Orman offers a friendly queson and answer session in a printed format.Suze covers all of life's financial stages with the sound, honest, and practical information yneed to make the best possible use of your money. Suze shows you how! Also recommend her newest book, The Laws of Money.

A complete encyclopedia on personal finance

This is one of Suze's Orman's best books. It covers everything you need to know about wealth building and personal finance.Those giving this book 1 stars and saying it's too basic--question; how are you doing financially? What is your net worth? What is your debt to income ratio?Like those who bash the Millionaire Next Door, More Wealth without Risk and other outstanding wealth books, my guess is that you are looking for excuse; a way to rationalize your way for not being where you want to be financially.And if you truly "know it all" already, why are you still buying and reading books? Hmmmmm??"The Road to Wealth" is excellent. I also recommend Suze's newest book, "The Laws of Money" to add to your knowledge and financial well being.

Ten stars and her best book

I own a few of her books and this is the best in many ways. Ever wish that some financial advisor would answer your question? The question that either never gets asked or the writer runs out of space before the book is done and your question is missed?Well, this almost 700 page gem not only answers in a Question and Answer mode literally thousands of questions but does so on subjects that cover managing debt, home ownership, insurance and paying for college. To retirement concerns and stock, mutual funds and annuities. And a topic many people put off discussing, wills and trusts.You also get her newsletter FREE when you buy the book. I really appreciate her chapter on Money and Intimacy which basically covers the things that cause problems in a marriage when it comes to money. One person spends to much and one person is afraid to spend much at all. And she covers the subject of bankruptcy which is something that seems to be happening so much these days. She also discusses issues that are very 2002, like same sex unions and live in partners and how to protect ones assets.This is a good book to have in ones library and I think it is one I will be giving to my local library because it is the best on the subject in my opinion. Sort of an encyclopedia of financial Q and A.

Highly Recommended!

In this series of questions and answers, personal finance guru Suze Orman presents her basic program of personal finance management. Her foundation is debt management and she touches on many other important basics, including retirement planning, insurance and mutual funds. Orman writes for financial novices - if you have a solid understanding of finance, read this book for enjoyment, not education. But if you're still looking to get your financial house in order, this bestseller is a great place to start. We [...] recommend this book to all financial beginners, and especially applaud Orman's unique take on how finances affect relationships, and vice versa.
