Helps to simplify a very complex topic November 19, 2006

What a great resource for all levels of financial awareness! From the first time buyer to the seasoned real estate agent, there is a wealth of knowledge here to be obtained. Absolutely EVERYONE should be concerned with becoming more educated about the mortgage industry. It is the single largest debt that we all incur in our lifetime. It should be a topic that more of us are knowledgeable about. This is one book that you will want to revisit time and time again because every turn of the page answers a new question that before, you never even knew to ask.
Borrowing Money 101 November 19, 2006

I really enjoyed reading the Borrower's Bible. The book consolidated and clarified a lot of what I've experienced during my long borrowing career - I wish I would have read the book in High School! The book walks through and simplifies the process of borrowing money (with some good humor). It a good guide that is helping me better prepare for my future borrowing needs. It's also a perfect resource that I'm using to educate my kids about borrowing money - required reading in this house!!
