The book is well written and has good advice to get a solid start in life. Another great book for the grad is Rat Race Relaxer: Your Potential & The Maze of Life.

Great resource
I was quite surprised at how interesting and practical this book was. Many books on personal finance or job finding can be grueling to read and filled with more hype than useful tips. But Stacy Kravetz writes well, and she knows what she's talking about. She also has a pretty healthy perspective on jobs and finding jobs, which can provide hope for the underemployed college grad. If you're looking to organize your life in a sensible way, it's definitely worth skimming through once, but it can be a good reference guide as well.

Excellent book for college graduates
This book is very well written and organized. I will definately refer back to this book in the future. It had a lot of excellent ideas for the recent college graduate, covering everything from resumes to investing. I really liked how the book was full of basic information that everyone needs to know. It also listed sources where one can find more information though other books and the internet. Similar Products
