Product Description

Amazon.ca

Once a woman learns to take charge of her finances, she will never go back, asserts author David Bach in Smart Women Finish Rich, his guide for women who want to organize their finances, determine their net worth, and formulate goals for financial success. The book, based on Bach's educational seminars, helps readers overcome the fears that often lead to financial paralysis and short-sighted decision-making. "Don't get bogged down by the stuff you suddenly feel you should have done years ago but didn't," he advises. "The issue is what you will be doing with your new-found knowledge once you finish reading this book."

Once he helps readers to understand what they want money to do for them, Bach provides advice on insurance, retirement savings plans, and investing in stocks and mutual funds. The Canadian version is tailored for this country's tax laws, regulations, retirement planning strategies, and resources. Bach understands that money is not just a number in a bank account statement--it helps people fulfill dreams. And understanding which goals are worth pursuing is the foundation on which all smart financial planning is based. --Carolyn Leitch



From AudioFile

Bach is an experienced investment advisor and a snappy speaker who knows how to package his material. The meat of the program is clear advice about limiting spending, avoiding taxes, and investing for the future, and he delivers it with an obvious desire to be helpful. Though delaying gratification is a hard concept to sell to anyone, he's got a pitch that is remarkably upbeat and motivating. Here's a fantastic way to create the security you deserve and fund the dreams you dream. It just requires making decisions independently, planning, and sticking to that plan week after week. Highly recommended for all people wanting to manage money better, especially women.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must be read by all women!!!, Aug 5 2004
This book should be required reading for all women in their early twenties!!!

It is amazing how little we are taught as women about our finances and few women express financial independence as a life goal, but it is so important!

This book doesn't talk down to the first-time investor or financial planner, but instead shows you how to make better decisions about your finances and work toward your goals of buying a car, a house, taking a trip, and/ or retiring well.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's helpful, yet cheesy, May 3 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Smart Women Finish Rich (Paperback)
I learned a LOT from this book. I didn't know much of anything about investing until I picked it up; know I feel foolish for the years I spent not really knowing what a mutual fund was (it's not really that complicated). Bach is good at clearly explaning the issues without relying heavily on jargon. And the book is full of astonishing charts & graphs detailing how a little bit of savings, invested early enough and wisely, can become a huge pile of money. He also gives tidbits of very helpful advice about related issues, like planning for retirement (start early!), creating a living trust, and insurance needs.

I recommend this book for women (or men) who have little or no knowledge of financial planning. His advice is very basic and simple. It's an easy read, too - I finished it in about 2 hours.

He breaks up his chapters into life stages - reasonably, he advises different strategies for a women in her 20s than for a women in her 50s. I'm young so I read the entire book avidly, but I suspect that an older reader might benefit more from a book directed exclusively to her needs.

One thing really irritated me about Bach's style: he continually gives these (obviously fake) examples of women who burst into his office crying and in the poor house because they acted contrary to his advice. If you have a very low tolerance for simple-minded anecdotes, look elsewhere.

1.0 out of 5 stars A Major Disappointment, Jan 2 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Smart Women Finish Rich: 9 Steps to Achieving Financial Security and Funding Your Dreams (Paperback)
I was a huge David Bach fan before I opened this book. In the past Mr. Bach has served investors well with his books, but this one is a real stinker. I am the president of an all-female investment club and from time to time I am charged with finding books that will help us make money. I got this book hoping just that, but I was very disappointed. Mr. Bach seems to have just placed the scraps from his earlier books into this one and as a result he has done a sloppy job. Much of the book is beefed up with standard reference materials that anyone can find at their local library. The numerous references to web sites and magazines, etc are not something that I would want in a book, since I can find them elsewhere for free. Anyway, I hope in the future that Mr. Bach will be more considerate of his readers and write a book that is new, original, instead of one like this that is boring and unhelpful.
