    Amazon.com: On My Own Two Feet: A Modern Girl's Guide to Personal Finance: Books: Manisha Thakor & Sharon Kedar

    Rachel, thanks for recommending this. It got amazing reviews on Amazon. We should do a phone book club about this!

    Quoted: You can either manage your financial life, or let it manage - and torture - you. Financial service professionals and CFAs Thakor and Kedar recommend the former and show you how to achieve it. This guide to financial planning for young women (men, this applies to you, too) is sound and prudent... Thakor and Kedar are more like financial physicians than financial consultants.

    Quoted: Although college entrance exams like the SAT and ACT test a student's ability to understand algebraic equations, they don't test what many consider the practical side of math: comparing prices, computing interest and balancing checkbooks. Some educators argue there's no time to devote to personal finance in the classroom.
