Getting Loaded: Make A Million, While You’re Still Young Enough To Enjoy It
This is the book that started it all for me. It contains fifty simple strategies to improve your financial life.
Praise for Peter Bielagus and Getting Loaded
This book will actually give you a multitude of tips you can actually use for those who are financially clueless. So many things in the book were explained simply, easily. Everything in the book helps you save or get more out of your life and money. Its also NOT boring. While I couldnt really speed read the whole thing...this is something you want to read a bit everyday, then go back and review. If you want to not have to worry about money later in life or now, get this one. Its worth it.
This book is a must have

I like the humor in this book. He makes what could be a very dry topic, clear & understandable. I am learning some knew things & I'm 44 years old. Also, I did see him speak once & he's a great speaker.
Great Book, Enjoyable Read

I've read several books on personal finances that were supposedly for 20 year olds and they were all a bore. Those books either were for 40 year olds or never progressed beyond "How to write a check". But, Peter Bielagus' book is just right.
He addresses all the concerns of a twenty year old and beyond with great advice and humor. Peter shows you how to budget without feeling restricted and frustrated. Getting Loaded explains the stock market in laymen's terms which makes you feel comfortable investing your money. All in all, Getting Loaded is a great book to help you set up your financial future and learn how to get your money to work for you.
College graduates should definitely pick up this book and it's also a great graduation gift. I highly recommend this book, it's a great read!
A Fun Financial Must Read for Twenty-Somethings & College Grads

Getting Loaded is packed with practical advice that everyone with an interest in financial stability and independence should be accustomed to. The information is not complicated and represents only a beginner's guide to the financial world, but lack of the the knowledge in this book would leave one with a rather shaky financial foundation.
The chapters include the fundaments of money management, credit, insurance, investing, and the essentials of personal money matters. The content is geared towards a beginner, thus those with general knowledge in these areas will find little new on these topics; however, as an introductory book on personal finance, I would happily recommend this book to anyone including my own child.
