Most "financial planning" books are dreadful. They all preach the same old stuff... scrimp and save, live an aweful life of miserly worry, chained to a budget. Finally somebody got it RIGHT. Joseph Simpson's book is LIBERATING. It shows you how and why most of what the so called experts have been preaching is just not true and just not realistic. Take, for example credit cards. If you read just about every financial advisor from Suze on, you hear "credit cards are evil...." That's just not true. Simpson shows you how to use credit cards as a financial weapon in managing your money. Good Deal. Finally makes sense.

When it comes to budgets, something I abhor, Simpson says simply, "burn it!" ALL RIGHT! It feels liberating to hear a CPA tell you that all that budgeting stuff was really unnecessary. No more obsessing over what happened to that [$$$]I had in my purse.

When it comes to planning for retirement, I was a wreck. All I heard was that if I didn't put away most of my income, I would be a bag lady. OK, so what am I supposed to live on NOW? Simpson's book shows me why most of what I was being preached was a bunch of bull designed to help some "financial planner" sell me investments. No more guilt. A Clear View is what Simpson gave me. Relief, oh what a relief there was.

This book should be required reading for anyone before they get in the clutches of some "financial planner." To begin with, you'll understand what they are up to, see when the sales pitch kicks in, and know exactly what is truth and what is hype.

This book is unlike any other I have ever read. Thank you Joseph Simpson. You have made my life a whole lot less stressful, and you have helped me see clearly that the future isn't
doom and gloom, but full of promise and excitement.

I like this book. It provides a good summary of a complete list of the term structure models. Best of all, it contains a consistent methodology for deriving interest rate derivatives. The forward measure technique is explained very well. However, symbols are not clear and later chapters are too "concise". I would like to see more numerical examples. Also, an inclusion of numerical methods should be helpful.

this book compares the state and federal laws, clearly explained, simplified, will without a doubt help you pass your exam

After reading this book and listing to Ms. King speak, it is very easy to see why she is such a blessed individual. Her book gives us practical examples of sound biblical principles for us to apply in our own lives.

I have been an AOL member for two years. I first joined using Windows (then switched to the iMac version). I was seriously considering the possibility of switching to another online service, because of all the problems I had getting and staying connected, finding Web sites and so on.

I bought a couple of AOL books and finally chanced upon Mr. Steinberg's work on AOL 4.0. This book was the answer for me! It was easy to read, detailed, but clear and crisp. I followed his instructions on setting up AOL software and my modem. And now I'm able to enjoy the wonderful AOL experience. I've even kept my membership as a result.

I first heard of Gene Steinberg via his funny commentaries on the Craig Crossman radio show ("Computer America") and I'm happy I bought his books. He really knows his stuff and I recommend you read everything he writes. I'm now a fan!

Many estate planners fail to adequately understand a client's personal values and priorities and merely plug into a standardized will and trust setup. This book provides a systematic method for analyzing and implementing needs for personal financial security, gifts to family, and charitable giving. The audience for the book is clearly professional financial planners, but wealthy individuals will find the author's approach helpful.

Finally a plan that makes sense. Step by step instructions with allowances made for indvidual circumstances. Surely this book is annointed.

This book is about to change my life...dramatically! Ms. Applegarth delivers a fresh, compelling approach to a subject that is covered endlessly and in general, inadequately. Although I have admired Virginia's advice on broadcast television, it is by definition a medium for sound bites. Here is a chance to listen to this extraordinary woman as she drills down into her subject and offers smart and truly practical advice for making and managing one's money. In case it isn't clear, I LOVE THIS BOOK. With boundless respect and admiration, LAA
