Good “Personal Finance 101″ type of book for early career types?
Just looking for a decent book that’s sort of a ‘finance 101′ type of thing. There’s a ton of these types of books out there, just wondering what’s a good one so I’m not wasting my time.
I’m in my 20′s and have some of the basics covered (IRA, 401k, high-interest checking/savings) and am now starting to get more serious about this stuff (just opened a Schwab account, looking to do more than simply put money in the bank). Hopefully that helps give you a better perspective of where I’m at.
Go check out Suze Orman’s site, or watch her on CNBC. She’s one of the best personal finance people I’ve ever seen…
