The Graduate's Guide
to Life and Money, 2nd Edition

The Graduate's Guide is a comprehensive personal finance book designed to help recent college graduates in their twenties and thirties with their everyday finances. This book will equip readers with the type of real-life financial knowledge not taught in high school or college. The information covers such basic concepts as how to write a check, while also explaining more difficult topics such as leasing a car, managing your student loans, or communicating about money before a wedding. For the first time, recent college graduates will have the tools necessary to make wise financial decisions without being at the mercy of the better equipped sales professionals waiting to take advantage of the young and inexperienced.

Unlike most personal finance books that consist of pages of dull information, The Graduate's Guide is an interactive book that includes an easy summary and action step with each chapter to help the reader apply their new knowledge. The bulleted summaries help reinforce the principles throughout each chapter and are a familiar feature to students who are accustomed to textbooks. The Graduate's Guide is in no way a dry personal finance book, with humor and sarcasm sprinkled throughout to keep the reader's attention so they can have fun while learning.


The Graduate's Guide to Life and Money is the perfect guide for recent college grads and not so recent college grads alike. This guide explains all aspects of taking control of your life and finances in an easy to understand way, while managing to throw in some funny quips. Bill Pratt explains all the necessary knowledge any financially independent adult needs to know.

The Graduate's Guide to Life and Money is an easy to read resource with funny quips that provides the essential knowledge to become financially independent and successful. In addition to being an excellent read, this guide is an easy to use reference-which will come in handy no matter what stage in life you're in.

I personally feel better and more prepared to take on the world of personal finances with this guide by my side. The Graduates Guide is one financial literacy book I would suggest to anyone-no matter their age-looking to figure out their personal finances
