Necessary Reading for New Young Couples

Jim Cramers most recent book as an absolute "required reading" for young married couples. If they apply the principles demonstrated in this book, they will be well prepared financially for the future and retirement.

His Best Book Yet

At last, Jim Cramer has written a book for real people. The other ones were useful, but this one finally addresses the issues that affect retired investors, non-millionaires and others who are not out simply to make a fast buck off the market. I recommend this highly to anyone seeking some good basic advice with the Cramer touch.

Must read for learning personal finance basics

I consider myself a reasonably savvy person when it comes to basic finance. With that said, I wish I read this book when I was in high school or college. Although I watch Jim Cramer's Mad Money frequently and sometimes question his over-the-top approach on his TV show, 'Stay Mad for Life' is a great book to go through and review the fundamentals of personal finance. To me, this should be the first Jim Cramer book you should read.

Cramer's book titles often flash the word 'rich' and he frequently reminds you that he will make you rich in his book, but I applaud the way he does it. Cramer frequently stresses that you must take care of the basics first, such as getting out of debt, putting retirement ahead of toys, and making sure you take responsibility for your financial future. He does not say do exactly A,B and C and everthing will be great. He also emphasizes that you need to question everything, including him.

I especially appreciated Cramer's dissection of mutual fund fees, especially 12b1 and front-end/back-end loads. If you know what these things are, this book may be too basic for you. If you don't, you'll find Cramer's Mad for Life a good start in personal finance. After reading it, I called my financial advisor, reviewed my portofolio and adjusted it. Cramer's book made me sit up and scrutinize my personal finances. And that is exactly what each person who wants to 'Get Rich, Stay Rich' needs to do.

required reading

Everyone planning ahead needs this text. Young savers need to watch what they invest in and be more aggressive in the early years. Cramer explains types of investments to start with and to use the best that is available to you.

Good But Long Winded

I think this book is very informative but I think he can get the point across in a more direct way. It is a little long winded but again very informative!!!
