Saw this at the library and it looked good....but of course I don't have time now to read this. In addition to becoming focused on being debt free, this book (by reading the flap) tells you how to master credit card debt you have based on current laws. Here's an exerpt from the front flap..

Not an especially exciting topic, but author provides a reasonable, well-organized discussion of managing debt, with separate chapters on student loans, mortgages, credit cards, etc. Probably you'd need to go into more depth (and he provides references for where you can find it) to implement some of the trickier strategies (e.g., equity acceleration, which sounded to me like paying for virtually everything from a home equity line of credit), but for the most part it's straightforward stuff--pay...more
For those of you who are regular readers, you know I don't often review non-fiction, but this book has helped me, so I am definitely reviewing it. I have paid off three credit cards and reduced my overall debt by about 4000 bucks, in addition to the good debt I have analyzed and learned to handle better.

The book covers just about every thing from different...more
When I received Master Your Debt by Jordan E. Goodman, I was expecting a finance book similar to one authored by Suze Orman or Dave Ramsey. However, instead of advice on creating a budget, lowering expenses, and paying off debt, Master Your Debt is more about helping you navigate today's financial landscape. Goodman explains how we got into our current mess of an economy and how that has changed the way loans, mortgages, credit cards, and even student loans are handled today.

I learned very little that I didn't already know. But then, I've read a lot of personal finance books. For the newbie, this would probably be an informative book.
This was recommended to me, and I understand why. Goodman gives tips I hadn't before heard of.
Overall, ok, but still skeptical about the accelerated mortgage payoff using a home equity line of credit plan recommended
