The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke is financial expert Suze Orman's answer to a generation's cry for help. They're called "Generation Debt" and "Generation Broke" by the media — people in their twenties and thirties who graduate college with a mountain of student loan debt and are stuck with one of the weakest job markets in recent history. The goals of their parents' generation — buy a house, support a family, send kids to college, retire in style — seem absurdly, depressingly out of reach. They live off their credit cards, may or may not have health insurance, and come up so far short at the end of the month that the idea of saving money is a joke. This generation has it tough, without a doubt, but they're also painfully aware of the urgent need to take matters into their own hands.
The Money Book was written to address the specific financial reality that faces young people today and offers a set of real, not impossible solutions to the problems at hand and the problems ahead. Concisely, pragmatically, and without a whiff of condescension, Suze Orman tells her young, fabulous & broke readers precisely what actions to take and why. Throughout these pages, there are icons that direct readers to a special YF&B domain on Suze's website that offers more specialized information, forms, and interactive tools that further customize the information in the book. Her advice at times bucks conventional wisdom (did she just say use your credit card?) and may even seem counter-intuitive (pay into a retirement fund even though your credit card debt is killing you?), but it's her honesty, understanding, and uncanny ability to anticipate the needs of her readers that has made her the most trusted financial expert of her day.
Over the course of ten chapters that can be consulted methodically, step-by-step or on a strictly need-to-know basis, Suze takes the reader past broke to a secure place where they'll never have to worry about revisiting broke again. And she begins the journey with a bit of overwhelmingly good news (yes, there really is good news): Young people have the greatest asset of all on their side — time.
- .m4b is a great format for audiobooks, because fewer files (usually only 1-2) are needed. They remember where you last listened, just like if you put a bookmark in a book, or paused a CD player.
- If you want to keep the book in an itunes playlist, then set the property "Media kind" to "Music".
- If you would like the book to appear in the Audiobook section of iTunes / iPod, then change the itunes file property "Media kind" to "Audiobook".
- .m4b files can be played with any software that plays .mp4 or .m4a. You simply have to right click and select "Open with". Otherwise .m4b files default to open in iTunes, or may register as unrecognised. But VLC or any other player that handles mp4 can also play m4b.
- The .m4b extension can be changed to .mp4 or .m4a if you do not use iTunes/iPod. No conversion needed, just change the file extension.
