Summary: On Your Own For The First Time
Comment: Finally, There are NO books out there like this! This book offers sound advice (that a parent like me would offer!) On Your Own For The First Time is absolutely the perfect graduation gift book. A guide to starting off in the real world is a true statement here. This book contains useful information for helping those that are getting out into the world and needs a reference guid (for when mom & dad aren't always around). It contains everything from employment to moving out to getting a car to money matters and life skills. I found out things that I never knew and I've been out on my own for quite a few years more than I'd like to mention!

This book is written like the author is speaking to a young person venturing off into the world. He relates to the reader, is very to the point and offers advice that is very much needed. After reading, it is very obvious that the author has thoroughly researched the topics.

I want to tell everyone that I have found the perfect gift for graduates or anyone else starting off on their own for the first (or second time for that matter), it's a must! What a perfect Easter Basket Present as well!

Summary: The perfect book for every high school grad...
Comment: "Mom, how do I write a resume?"
"Mom, how can I figure out what my credit score is?"
"Mom, what's renter's insurance?"
After constantly calling my mother every time I had a question about how to do something, she bought me this book.

It goes through everything you need to know about starting a life of your own. It does a good job of giving you just as much information as you need. If you have questions, they tell you where you can get more in depth information. The book has six sections.

1.) Employment: resumes, cover letters, job interviews, how to change jobs
2.) Moving Out: renting an apartment, having your appliances turned on, how to rent furniture and appliances, how to get renter's insurance
3.)Getting a Ride: buying a car, car insurance, selling a car, how to care for your car
4.)Money Matters: personal investing, credit cards, filing an income tax return, credit problems and how to fix them, checking accounts
5.) When "It" Happens: unemployment, understanding pawnshops, bankruptcy, small claims court, medical insurance, traffic court, what to do after a car crash
6.) Life Skills: manners and etiquette

If you're a senior in high school, a college student, or a mother trying to get your child to stop asking you questions, this is a perfect book for you.

Summary: I love this book!
Comment: Curtis and Libby think this book is great! It helps people start their life alone and it's not just for young people leaving school, it's for everyone starting off alone or for someone starting over. I think the author had a great idea and wrote a useful guide....thank you Jeff Bowers!
