Media Reviews

`You will have friends who think it's cool to profess ignorance of how money works. But you will be the smartest if you get to grips with personal finance. If you can understand how tax, saving and borrowing work, you can take control of your spending and plan for the future. Of course, you need a guide to get started and this is that book. Laura Whateley understands her subject and knows how to explain it in such a way that you will be able to make informed choices about your finances, rather than feeling confused and patronised' The Times
