2 out of 5 stars Good Information, but only for raw beginners   October 11, 2007

The title would have you think that you're being given access to a wealth of inside information that most people don't know about. Well, that's only true if you are just stepping out into the big world on your own, or if you've been living paycheck to paycheck and not paying attention. For anyone who understands the basics of finance and business, this book won't tell you anything you haven't heard many times before. It's reasonably well written, although a good edit would have caught many of the typos and grammatical gaffes. And there is information provided here that everyone should know. So if your eighteen year old is heading out to their first apartment, this would be a good going away gift. If you itemize your tax deductions, or operate your own business, you'll find this elementary level reading at best.


5 out of 5 stars The book is a great money maker   August 7, 2007

I read this book after the Evolution Diet- and I really like the style of writing. It's lighthearted, but very good informative. I'm going to do two of the technique right away including start an online business to get ad revenue and change my deductions to give me more money throughout the year, save that money, and make money on interest instead of giving it to the government before it's due. This was really smart I thought- why is it that we give the government our money through income tax all year without earning interest, but once we're late on our tax return, we're instantly charged interest. Very suspect! Morse shows how to capitalize on that.

All the reviews are right on except for Bertie's review below - this one time reviewer seems like he/she has a bad job and is taking it out on this guy.

I got this book with Scam Proof and that looks good too.



5 out of 5 stars A valuable resource   March 6, 2007

Morse uses a humorous, no-nonsense approach to help readers navigate the sea of credit card offers, tax refunds, cell phone rebates, and more everyday financial issues in the most advantageous way possible. He provides many valuable, never-before-revealed tips on how to make the most of your finances, and he sheds light on the often confusing policies of our major corporations, as well as on many of their shadier marketing ploys and full-blown scams. Whether it's with a lower interest rate or a free iPod, a newly discovered tax write-off or a free vacation, everyone will benefit from reading this book.


4 out of 5 stars A good introduction of the basics of not getting done-to.   January 30, 2007

This book is a collection of things one ought to realize about the real world of marketing, credit cards, and other things that have a dark side. Don't expect to make a pile of money with this book, but do use it to help you be aware of how to deal with the tricksters, marketers, credit companies, and other predators with whom one must deal every day.

I've only read four parts, but I enjoyed Morse's sense of humor so much that I'm buying copies today for my 20 something kids! Morse takes the clever path to educating readers in practical financial matters that most of us don't think about.
