Customer Reviews:
Excellent overview of the bankruptcy process.......2004-01-23
This is an excellent book for the non-lawyer that needs to get up to speed quickly on the bankruptcy process. I found myself as the business person managing the creditor side of a bankruptcy and this book helped me become fluent in the process with minimal delay.
The book is written in a light manner and is a rather quick read with a lot of detail available in appendices.
Book Description

Money Doesn't Grow on Trees is the book that parents turn to when it comes to teaching their children about money. With 180,000 young adults between the ages of eighteen and twenty-four declaring bankruptcy last year and college students graduating with an average of $28,000 in debt, Neale S. Godfrey is the definitive expert on the subject and her time-tested advice is more important than ever.
Money Doesn't Grow on Trees offers exercises and concrete examples on everything from responsible budgeting to understanding the difference between "want" and "need" for children of every age. This revised edition includes entirely new sections that discuss
- The power of the Internet
- The tactics of television advertisers
- The world of eBay
Godfrey's years of experience as a mother and a financial expert make Money Doesn't Grow on Trees a book no responsible parent can afford to pass up.
Customer Reviews:
I bought 12 copies and gave for gifts!.......2007-03-30
My husband originally bought this book, and then I read and re-read it. We have 2 sons, (10 & 12 yrs old). This book REALLY helped us to set up a program for spending and saving with our sons. I like the way is is simply laid out. I would highly recommend any parent who is interested in learning more and getting help on how to set-up the whole money thing to get this book...better earlier than later! Be patient, it does work...it just takes time and persisitence.
User-friendly and useful.......2007-02-09
We all spend a lot of time talking about how to instill proper financial values in our children. This book gives you step-by-step advice on how to make that "talk" reality. The sections on how to use the world as your financial classroom and how to instill your personal values through consumerism were perfect for our young children. Perhaps the best part of the book is that it is written in an easy-to-read, easy-to-understand style. Anyone reading this book will be able to use and implement these ideas.
Good book for all parents........2001-07-31
If your a parent and having trouble teaching your children about economy then this is the book for you. It help me with my children very much. This book has many was to help you teach your children and may even teach you a thing or two. So if you need help then get this book.

Customer Reviews:
a generation raised with too much.......2007-07-16
Here is a book to kick start parents to stop spoiling and teaching kids that possessions represent love, personal significance or status.
The current generation of high school kids throws a tantrum when they aren't GIVEN 9 yes, given) a new car on their 16th birthday- and pay their own gas. well, theres only a parent to blame- stop buying and send them to work- thye truly feel entitled because they were raised on unearned praise and rewards- their language of love is things and they think their idientiy comes from having the right stiff. I see this in church kids and non-church kids. Wake up nation and reads this book
A must have for families!.......2004-01-14
Ellie Kay has done it again. In this book Ellie lays everything out on the table when it comes to teaching your child about finances. Funny thing though, I learned a thing or two myself! Every aspect is broken down from age zero to eighteen and beyond!
I immediately applied what I had learned on my children and saw a dramatic change within one week. You must get this book along with her other books, "Shop, Save and Share" and "A Womans Guide to Family Finance". Your family will thank you later!
A fan from Hong Kong.......2003-06-25
It's very nice to meet you here. I'm Jackie Ho from
Hong Kong. I'm just reading the book `Money Doesn't Grown On Trees'. It's really very useful. Actually I'm going to design and launch a class of `Money Education' to kids and teens. I want to tell them what the money is and teach them how to manage money, and also, make them more interests in math, logic, reading
comprehension, etc. This book gives me lots of ideas.
Thank you so much, Ms. Kay.
I would not recommend.......2003-04-01
I was looking for a book to help guide me and my husband to teach my child about allowance and money management. I had no idea that this is a religious based book. I am a Christian, but I don't believe that God is the answer to money questions. Furthermore, there is not any straight forward, helpful information. This book is mostly just vague ideas. I would not recommend this book
She's done it again!.......2003-03-18
Ellie is a gold mine of information regarding saving money and spending what we have wisely. I have 3 children and was pulling my hair out trying to teach them that the way to earning money is not by holding your hand out to daddy. I have read this book more times than I can count and have found and implemented many ideas. My 13 year old daughter is not very fond of her actually having to do something now but she can't hold her hand out forever. We have to remember that what we teach them now greatly effects their future. To have anything when you become an adult, you have to work and be on a budget. With the ideas Ellie has in her books, you can teach your children now. I don't want to see my children have a rough time when they are older because I gave them whatever they wanted when they were younger. I have noticed since my 7 year old has been working for that "I gotta have it toy", he takes care of them better and doesn't forget where he puts it.
Buying Ellie's books has been the best investment I could make to our budget. Thank's Ellie!
Book Description
Is it possible to turn a teenager into a financially responsible human being? Based on years of listening and talking to parents and kids about money, Neale S. Godfrey has seen it can happen-but only when parents play an active part in getting them on the right track. Money Still Doesn't Grow on Trees helps parents deal with adolescents' attitudes and expectations about money and offers practical steps for curbing their excesses and helping them acquire the financial savvy they'll need as adults. Godfrey calls upon parents to evaluate the patterns concerning money they have established with their teenage kids. She includes making common mistakes such as trying to give them what 'everyone else' has or using a shopping trip as a reward for good behavior. She explains what teens should know about family finances and budgeting; examines the pressures our consumer culture puts on kids, with smart advice on how to counteract them; and describes the personal values teens gain when they begin to earn and manage their own money. Snapshots of families coping (with varying degrees of success) with their own teenagers' financial habits-plus sidebars, quizzes, cartoons, and quotations-add to the book's appeal and persuasiveness.
Customer Reviews:
Great resource for dealing with the $ issues we SHOULD have dealt with before!.......2007-05-17
A very easy read - with information divided into easily digestible (and logical) sections. Question and answer sections, forms to use, and "real world" examples abound and are extremely helpful, and easily "reworked" to pass along to the child/"pre-adult" in your life. The book even delves into difficult issues such as divorced parents, which creates dealing with "mommy versus daddy" (even in older "children"), diffferent parenting styles, etc. Best perhaps if used when your child is high school age - but we found plenty of information still valuable for a college-age child who's not money-savvy at all. Also wonderful the way it never "talks down" to you - but helps you realize some of the errors you've made - and how to solve them. And most positively - that it's never too late to try to help your kid learn about financial matters!
Parent Helper.......2007-01-29
I gave this book to my daughter and her husand and my son-in-law read it that day. It will assist her parents' financial conversations with my precocious granddaughter.

Customer Reviews:
Great Book for ANYONE!!!!.......2006-04-26
I picked up this book at the local drug store thinking this would be a fluff piece. But for $5 bucks I got more than I could ever have bargained for. Its easy to read, you can pick and choose chapters that you wish to look at. And there is also a section for you to write down your specific goals and so forth. I learned so much about my habits from a secular and spiritual point of view. A book you'll want to pass around.
