Get a copy for yourself and anyone else who needs wise financial advise........2007-07-30
Great book. It emphasizes the importance of saving and then goes on the give good investing advise. A novice all the way to a sophisticated investor will learn a lot from this book. I bought 3 copies and am loaning them out to family and friends.
Silly Title With Good Information.......2006-11-13
This contains a lot of good advice about how to begin accumulating wealth and increase the same.
It has good information about investing in stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. It also has a lot of advice for those who are starting or building a business.
Although it is good, I think that there are other books on building wealth that are far better. I would particularly recommend 'The Total Money Makeover' by Dave Ramsey. It is written in a more user friendly style and has a great plan that is workable for virtually everyone.
Great book! Common sense, easy to comprehend!.......2006-11-11
This book works! I bought the first edition years ago and just bought the 3rd edition as a gift for a freind. The advice works! It is written in clear language. The author does not try to intimidate the beginner. He is trying to make the reader feel confident that they can do this too!
This was my first investment book. Many more have followed but this one influenced my life the most. Great book!
Suzie Orman, Your Fired.......2004-09-21
I purchased this book based on the reviews of other readers, and must admit I was very skeptical about it. But nothing ventured, nothing gained... This ventured really paid off.
I haven't even read the entire book at the time of this review, but I have to give it 5 stars. This book takes away the smoke & mirrors about investing, and the author's enthusiasm about investing in contagious.
I was a Suzie Orman fan and I'm sure she's a great person, but she comes off kind of arrogant: it's her way, or no way at all. Every couple of years Suzie has to repackage her advice into a new book. I've read most of her books: same song, maybe a different tune.
Larry's book straight plain English with no BS: here's what you need to do, displicine is needed if you're serious, stay way of these investments, when you reach these milestones here are the considerations needed, etc.
The book changed my outlook on investing. You don't need a full service broker. Buy this book, and forget paying commissions. A little research and you can just as good as the pros, provided you do your homework.
Best investment.......2004-03-15
The book lays out in simple, easy-to-understand terms, the ways you achieve wealth. The writing is not preachy nor circuitous like Rich Dad, Poor Dad. What we have here is a clear, easy-to-follow roadmap to financial independence. There are loads of insights and mind-opening concepts here, so I recommend buying this book. It's money well spent.

savings helpful info.......2002-09-02
these series of books are always goodin my opinion. this one took the often tedious confusing facts and presented everything in an easy format to read
401K made easy.......2001-06-23
with all the IDIOTS guides easy to read format, this book provides an in depth look at 401K issues that may have otherwise been much drier if not done in this fun format. when i finished thebook, i lent it to my staff, who are first time 401K investors. i would say that this is a must buy for anyone who feels they are intimidated with 'what to do?' or 'what does this mean?' type of questions.

Basic Guide a Good Start for the Young Adult.......2007-08-08
Like all "Idiot" books I have read, this one has excellent organization. Technical jargon is kept to a minimum, and the conversational writing style moves along at a good pace. The level of user-friendliness makes the information instantly accessible and useful to young people who are concerned about their financial futures. The strategies are indeed suited to the age group in the title - 20s and 30s - because the strategies outlined are quite conservative. These will have limited use for people in their 40s or 50s who have suffered a devastating financial loss (such as foreclosure and bankruptcy)and are having to start over building for retirement. This book is just what it says. It provides a wealth of simple but crucial information, all for about the price of a movie ticket, with extra large popcorn and soda. Thumbs up!
So-so book. Get Suze Orman's instead........2007-08-04
I bought this book and The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke. Skip this one and get Suze Orman's book instead. Both books are for people in their 20's or 30's, but Suze Orman's book covers much more material and many more options. The Idiot's Guide tells the same old story: budget, budget, budget, and is very light on details.
Too juvenile.......2007-07-13
I found this to be ridiculously juvenile. I skipped the first ten or so chapters because it provided absolutely no information that any person over the age of ten should know. I did however find the chapters on stock and mutual funds, etc to be very helpful. Not for someone over the age of fourteen.
Great Book Excellent Transaction.......2007-01-22
This seller is fabulous and items are as promised and delivered lightning quick.
good book for young people.......2005-08-30
even if you don't have a lot of money, this book offers helpful tips on how to manage, budget, and invest.

Other books may show you how to create an effective training presentation. This is the only practical how-to book and web site that will enable you to rapidly create an effective learning environment.

Excellent reference and resource book.......2000-10-03
I am a new media technology evangelist, and an expert in the fields of applying interactive learning technologies for education. I found Beer's book to be tremendous resource for real-world examples of what can be considered good and effective e-learning. The chapters are concise and clear, with summaries and reference information. The resource lists are absolutely stunning and incredibly useful. Just for the number of resources scouted and selected for you it is worth is cover price. I would strongly suggest it to anybody interested in learning more in this field.
The Web Learning Fieldbook.......2000-07-19
This is an excellent reference specifically targeted to someone facing the daunting task of implementing eLearning into a corporate culture. It is not so narrow so as to remove an ability to apply personal circumstances. Yet, it is broad enough to enlighten the implementor to key considerations and pitfalls.
Fieldbook: Good Common Sense.......2000-06-01
Valorie Beer is obviously experienced with delivery of webbased content and makes many good "common sense" suggestions. The treatment of the topic is broad but not very deep. Positive: She offers many good tools (tables and checklists). Negative: Too many website references. Fewer website links with better personal review criterion would be far more useful. (Why is this site better than that, etc...) Very passive writing style.

Book Description
The nature of rural life and food production is changing dramatically but remains overlooked by the major media. The Invisible Farm provides the first substantial accounting of this problem, addressing issues such as habitat destruction, loss of biodiversity, pollution, and soil degradation. Pawlick supplies readers with frightening examples of events taking place worldwide without public awareness.
Download Description
The overall aim of this thesis is to alert journalists and journalism educators to a serious lacuna in current news coverage, one which threatens the well-being of society. Simply stating that a gap in coverage exists, without giving examples, would be unlikely to convince members of such a notoriously skeptical profession. Newsmen and women, it seems, are all "from Missouri." They want to be shown. Part I: The importance of agriculture to society and of farm news to the general public. Part II. The importance assigned to agriculture by the major news media and journalism educators.
