I must admit, I'm pretty slow when it comes to finances. It's my first year as a post-college student and I can't imagine saving my money until 59. But, I like the ideas in this book and I think I will. It explains everything! If you're an expert or not, you can use this book. I like the idea that saving for a 401k will lower the taxes on your paycheck. I'm on that borderline where if I made a little less, they wouldn't take out so much. So, I want to start a 401k to lower that income a bit. This book will make a believer out of you. There is a chapter dedicated for every excuse you may have for not wanting one (and it's easy to read). I dare you to see if you're excuse is not in there. See if they don't have a section for your special case. Prove me wrong. You won't.
Informative and well-written

Though a bit dated (2002/2003), it offers a good amount of information and detail on the 401(k) plan for the beginner. The authors build a good case and show by examples why investing for retirement is important and how starting early can make a lot of difference. It was a quick read even with a lot of financial terms explained and I believe I am wiser having read it.
