5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute "must buy"!!, 1 Oct 2003
By A Customer
I bought this book after recently getting married, having decided it was time to sort out our finances, and this book has been a godsend. It tells you the basics of dealing with debt, savings, investments, pensions and so on, which is great. But there are also quizzes and worksheets that really make you address issues like where you want to be in ten years time, what kind of lifestyle you want, and most importantly, how you might pay for it!

Alvin manages to get his message across firmly but without being patronising - if you liked the TV programme, you will find the book similar but more in-depth. I am going to buy copies for two of my friends- i don't want to lend them mine!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical advise where its most needed., 9 Sep 2003
By A Customer
Money matters is one of the most secretly kept facts in our society, and apart from the colourful ads from financial institutions, we dont get much of expert advice out there (unless you are willing to pay for it).

This book is an oasis! Nice little book with nice little tips to manage your finance. Apart from suggestions on how to get out the debt trap and get hold of your spending, author has also included valuable suggestions on how to go about saving, and even investing! Now, if you are looking for a hot tip on stock trading, you should look elsewhere, as all this book is offering is simple practical advice, that anyone can figure out themselves.

Thanks to Alvin for keeping it this simple and practical. Worth reading. And defenitly worth the money spend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hard Facts of Life!, 21 May 2003
By A. Newman "Radiantpaper" (North West - UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I had gotten myself into a few money troubles so an extra few pounds on a book to sort it all out was not going to make much difference. When I bought this book I was unsure how or if this book would work.

Well it did make a difference, but only if you are harsh with the rules. You have to be strict, otherwise you will fail. The book gives good and practical advice form saving to mortgages, investments and your everyday spending habit's.

For those of you who have seen the TV show well it's the same but with more practical advice and you are the star!

It's a well set out book with very good advice and ideas. It has helped me get back on track and it will help you!
