Synopsis
"Quite simply the best financial self-help book."
--Money Book Club, Book-of-the-Month Club
Even if you consider yourself a financial "basket case," Chilton explains how you can easily put an effective financial plan into action.
In this third edition of one of the biggest-selling financial-planning books ever, David Chilton simplifies the complex puzzles of personal finance and helps you achieve financial independence. With the help of his fictional barber, Roy, and a large dose of humor, Chilton shows you how to take control of your financial future--slowly, steadily, and with sure success. Chilton's plan (detailed in an entertaining story) is no get-rich-quick scheme, but it does make financial independence possible on nothing more than an average salary.
This third edition has been updated with assistance from the Arthur Andersen Corporation.
