I think readers who are just getting interested in finances could really benefit from this book. chris I have listen The Richest Man in Babylon, this book was much easier to listen to than read, but I loved this book.

A couple I recommend are "Are you Being Seduced by Debt?" by John Cummuta. Look past the 'program' he sells and the book has a lot of great information. It's a good read on the history of debt and our personal relationship with it. It also has a decent get-out-of-debt strategy. For some fun budgeting/planning ideas I found "The Complete Cheapskate" by Mary Hunt to be very enjoyable. Also related to debt, I recommend "Born to Buy" by Juliet Schor, which looks at a generation of consumers. Materialistic overconsumption is a big factor in debt, after all. Thanks for the other book reviews. I haven’t read any of them either. A couple I recommend are “Are you Being Seduced by Debt?” by John Cummuta.
