Title: Great motivator with good financial info
Review: Perry's "A Girl Needs Cash" is a great motivator. I was especially happy to hear here opinion that an investor shouldn't wait before credit card balances are zero before saving/investing. The book also encourages self-reliance when it comes to money matters, which is a terrific goal for any financial planner trying to help a client.I was dissapointed that Perry several times in her book referred to home ownership as having no ability to provide future income. A reverse annuity mortgage may provide needed income to a retiree. She also refers to variable life insurance products as "private pension plans". Despite being marketed as such, referring to insurance as a pension plan borders on the unethical.Despite these minor problems, I certainly recommend this book as one of the several men and women should read while trying to organize there personal finances.
Is the review positive or negative?
