 Beware!
Warning bells started ringing in my head when early on the book the author recounts how he commiserated with one of his female seminar attendants that of course she doesn't have time to manage her personal finances, who does? At that point, I knew the book wasn't for me and I started skimming. He later (surprise!) suggests that readers seek the service of financial planners, even though he admits that they could cost 1-3% of your portfolio value annually. Other infractions include promoting variable annuities (he downplayed the cost and asserted that any costs would be recouped with the annuity's tax advantage!) and using VERY sloppy math to supposedly illustrate the Roth IRAs superiority to the Traditional IRA. The only reason I didn't give the book 1 star was that there was some standard common advice, such as every woman should know where her family's money is stashed and other similar advice.
 An essential read for all women!
David Bach and his grandmother have the keys to a happy life and financial empowerment. This book should be required reading for all women!

You can become rich with this ideas!!!!!
This book is required reading for every woman who also wants to hit a home run. The information is sound. It's easy to understand. If the steps are followed they will make any client Finish Rich.
As an idea you can begin making a million just mopping:
Mopping Up Millions!: Making A Killing In Cleaning -
Update Needed!
While there are many good ideas in this book and it contains sound philosophy, the present economy has rendered some of the advice suspect. Charts and tables given have people earning 10% interest for example! I wish. IRAs are one focus but when I went to my bank to discuss getting one, I found that money market accounts were getting a better interest rate currently than IRA's... and with a money market account the funds are available if you need them before retirement age. With updating, the book would be very good and helpful but as is, I am not sure if it has good information or not.
Great advice
This is another great book by David Bach. The author borrows a lot of ideas from his previous book Smart Couples Finish Rich. I absolutely love the answer that the author's mom gave him when he asked her,
"What really makes the world go round - money or love?"
Her reply was, "David, love is what makes life special...but without money you are in deep trouble!"
This is so true, but unfortunately our educational system fails to educate us about money. When it comes to money we are on our own. This book provides solid financial advice for everyone, but it is obviously targeted toward women. It addresses issues that women are concerned about.
