This book is a "must read" for everyone, whether you are young or old; have credit card debt or not; own a house or have recently had to let one go; have sizeable savings, 401k's, investments and such or little or none; have a secure job or are now unemployed, and so on.....the reality is that you HAVE TO HAVE A PLAN. This book is going to give you one. If you sit back and try and wait this financial storm out without a rock solid plan or continue to procrastinate even a little longer about making important financial decisions, your financial security is at risk.
If it is hard for you to say NO to yourself or your children, you can make Suze the "bad cop." This is a helpful reference book that will help you assess your current state, and move forward with a plan instead of fear or ignorance.
Either way, only a small number of people seem to change their behavior, unless it becomes absolutely necessary. In 2009, changing behavior is a necessity, as many people don't have don't have a choice now, and won't in the immediate future. For the long-term, we'll have to wait and see.

Is the Roth IRA right for you? By knowing the advantages and disadvantages of each, you can make the right choice. A Roth IRA is just one option. A Roth Individual Retirement Account (Roth IRA) is a personal retirement savings plan. The pros: Your money in a Roth IRA grows tax-free forever--you won’t pay any tax on withdrawals when you retire--and your investment choices are nearly limitless. The cons: You can only contribute up to $5,000 per year (in 2006) to your Roth IRA. You can contribute another 500 bucks if you’re over age 50. And you may not be able to contribute at all if your income exceeds certain limits. Information about Roth IRA
