I had to read this for a family finance course at college. Easily one of the most useful books I've ever read. Teaches basics of budgets, needs/wants, emotional spending, auto & home loans, retirement planning, and more importantly how to talk to your spouse about it all. It is a marriage financial therapy book as well as nuts and bolts basics on finances. Everything I should have learned BEFORE I got married.

I took this class at BYU and Dr. Poduska was the teacher. It was a great beginning practical financial principles for a marriage book. I'd highly recommend it if you are just starting out or if you're trying to work together as a couple to put your finances in order. It's a very simple book with sound principles.
