Too general to be very helpful. This was definitely written for a novice at personal finance.

Introduction clearly states that one will "learn how to be responsible with their money, control spending, increase savings, reduce or eliminate debt, is the information we will learn from this book." This is what I want and hope to retain it!

Basic info. Beginner to Intermediate level. I learned some of this already from trial and error, and from reading and watching previous resources when dealing with financial issues/budgeting and so forth. It was straight-forward, not cutesy or funny material but even included charts and other online resources to try. I hope these sites still work and look into it in the future. {took notes}
