A MUST Have for Everyone! Mar 17, 2008
By Jeff
After reading The Secrets of Money I firmly believe that every household should have a copy. This is the bible for all financially related topics spoken in laymen terms that everyone will understand.
I thought I was well versed in Financial Literacy and then I began to unearth loads of "gold nuggets" of information that will help me make the best financially related decisions to propel me to success.
Braun Mincher has a wonderful way of explaining everything from leasing or buying a car, all mortgage related items, credit card info and so much more.
I will make sure that all my friends and family get this wonderful book for gifts.

So much valuable and user-friendly information Dec 26, 2007
By Armchair Interviews
I found The Secrets of Money to be an excellent commonsense guide for dealing with everyday money matters.
I agree with the author's assessment that The Secrets of Money is an fairly easy read, and doesn't require a PhD to understand.
The Secrets of Money has 10 jam-packed chapters categorized for easy reference. Each chapter covers a multitude of subjects. For instance,
--Chapter one, Consumer Credit, covers 32 subjects, like Credit Reports and their importance to you, to Identity Theft, how to avoid it and what to do if it happens to you.
--Chapter 2: Real Estate Mortgages covers 38 subjects. This is important information everyone should know before purchasing a home.
--Chapter 3: Property Leases,
--Chapter 4: Buying and Selling Real Estate,
--Chapter 5: Car Buying and Financing,
--Chapter 6: Insurance,
--Chapter 7: Taxes,
--Chapter 8: Investing for the Future,
--Chapter 9: Wills, Probate, & Prenuptials, and
--Chapter 10: Your Keys to Financial Success.
If you are looking for a gift that will keep on giving, I'd recommend The Secrets of Money. It's a one-size-fits-all kind of reference book, for no matter the age of the person, whether they're about to open their first checking account or are ready for retirement, they can find something to help them manage their money a little better, I know I did.

A great learning tool--recommended reading! Nov 28, 2007
By Mrs. B
I'm amazed I really had things to learn! I consider myself pretty saavy when it comes to finances, but this book taught me things I hadn't considered before. It's easy to read and understand the concepts and I've learned there really are some secrets to money. I intend to make some changes as a result and I believe I will have more financial success in the future. Highly recommended reading and would be a great gift for grads!

detailed, easy to read, must have book about personal finance Jan 14, 2009
By Salem Mclaughlin
This book was very informative and made many complicated financial issues easy to understand. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to have better control of their money. While the entire book was not applicable to my current situation, it was easy to skip around and find relevant information. I still refer to it when I have questions about certain financial situations. Overall it is a great book!

The Money Manual Sep 28, 2008
By Michelle Dunn
"Award winning author, columnist"
Money and finance is something many people don't know a lot about but are afraid to ask questions about. They often don't want to appear as though they are not financially savvy or on top of their money situation. Braun Mincher has provided us with a "manual" on money and finance. Any type of question you might have, you can look it up in this handy desk guide on finance. This book is a must have for every business and home out there.
Questions such as how credit cards really make money, information on selling your house, social security, business loans, being a landlord, lease terms, 401K's, car buying and financing, mortgages, bankruptcy, payday loans, insurance, investing and so much more. If you have a question about finance, credit, running your business or any aspect of your personal money management, this is the book for you.
