From Amazon.com
Suze Orman's face and name are more prominent on the cover of her new money guide than its title, The Road to Wealth. And why not? Orman has parlayed her popular renown as both a New York Times bestselling author and video-age financial guru into an undeniable position of respect and trust when it comes to matters of dollars and sense. This time she presents an encyclopedic guide to the various components of one's overall financial life--from managing debt and owning a home to making investments and preparing to pass it all along--and she does so in the clear and confident style to which her fans have become accustomed. "Here is what you need to know," she writes at the outset. "Answers to the questions you have been asking, as well as the questions you should have been asking, delivered in the most complete, straightforward way I know." While the concise text moves logically from "creating a strong financial foundation to amassing assets and protecting them from common mistakes and periods of economic downturn," this is not meant to be read from cover to cover. Rather, it is a ready bookshelf reference for planning and sorting out common finance concerns, like how to calculate the mortgage payment you can best afford, determine what Medicare will pay toward nursing care, decide between retirement plan options, and similar matters of personal importance. --Howard Rothman

From AudioFile
One of the best-known personal finance authors gives us six hours of questions and answers on managing money. The program is less about investing than it is about getting the basics under control: eliminating credit card debt, reducing spending, minimizing taxes, and borrowing wisely. Orman is succinct and determined in this audio--like Judge Judy hammering somebody with money problems--and the effect is to make you want to balance your checkbook and get a part-time job to pay off your credit cards. It works and ought to be essential listening for anyone who is serious about life and wants to manage money better. T.W. © AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
