This is a great tool to help newcomers steer clear of loan sharks (ie payday loans!), understand the basics, and to find the right loan for them. I wish that a book like this was readily available to me back when I was in my early twenties. It would have helped me make better decisions and saved me from a few mistakes. The key here is to be informed and to know the basics. Without knowing the basics you may as well be a lamb going to slaughter because they will take advantage of your being naive. I won't list the subjects that this book covers in my review since that has already been done. Eshet provides several realistic situations as examples with computations that are concise, yet easy to read and understand. This book will help anyone who is shopping for a loan or wants a refresher course.
