Margaret Magnarelli, author and Assisting Managing Editor at Money magazine, covers basic personal finance knowledge from creating a budget, finding a job, and thinking about a career to using credit and loans, understanding insurance, and discussing financial investments and how they work.
The subject material is presented in an orderly and logical fashion to make learning easy and accessible to many learning levels. It is a great addition to an Economics course that needs to meet financial literacy requirements, as a textbook for a Consumer Economics class, or as an addition to an introductory Business/Entrepreneurship course.
