Orman’s 2009 action plan offers great tips for baby boomers

When I was at the drug store, I couldn’t resist. I bought a
copy of “Suze Orman’s 2009 Action Plan: Keeping Your Money Safe and Sound.”

Although the book offers many of the recommendations you see
Orman make on her TV appearances, the book is a small, 209-page, easy to read
guide with a question-and-answer format on what to do in these complex,
stressful financial times.

She begins the book with a brief history on the financial
crisis, saying it was caused by greed. I certainly agree with that.

Orman’s first recommendation is to pay off your credit
cards. Then she recommends investment strategies, including her familiar warnings
about not using your investments to pay off credit card debts or a mortgage.

Orman also repeats her familiar mantra about saving money.
Make a budget and do it.

Her action plan also includes tips on what to do about your
home, college costs, and a job loss.

I love Suze Orman. She emphasizes the basics of financial
planning that I’ve written about for years. And she does it with passion and a
great deal of caring about people.

Orman’s action plan book is one I recommend strongly.

  1. I also blogged about Suze’s book, which is available as a FREE download on Oprah’s site for the next few days only. I downloaded it, read it in a day, and identified several action points to work on immediately. I think Suze has a real heart for helping average Americans get back on track—and stay there! Thanks for recommending this book, too…..

  2. Hi Kathy,
    Thanks for your comment and letting me and my readers know about the free download of Suze Orman’s book. I was able to blog about it again before the deadline.
