Rich Dad's Advisors®: The ABC's of Getting Out of Debt : Turn Bad Debt into Good Debt and Bad Credit into Good Credit (Rich Dad's Advisors)

Rating:
Summary: An excellent overview of the credit system
Review: I actually have the audio version of the book and found it to be both broad and in-depth. The author dispels many of the credit myths, and examines exactly how credit is established, rated, and how it can be used in both good and bad ways. He spends a lot of time reviewing the subject of "credit repair" explaining how scammers (especially on the internet)operate. He focuses on what you can do legally to improve your credit. I've read most books on credit and debt management and found this to be a welcome addition to my bookshelf.

Summary: Great Consumer Credit/Debt Resource!
Review: The ABC's of Getting Out of Debt:Trade Your Bad Debt for Good Debt and Your Bad Credit for Good Credit really stands out among the many credit and debt related books available to consumers for many reasons. For starters, the book covers the topic of credit and debt in a very thorough and objective manner. Such critical, but often overlooked, topics as the health effects of debt are addressed. In addition, the book provides very simple and practical steps to help consumers that are struggling with credit and/or debt problems.

While the book is geared toward consumers that have credit or debt problems, all consumers can benefit greatly from the legal expertise of the author and from the expertise of Gerri Detweiler, who contributed to the book. For this reason, I strongly recommend that every consumer reads this book.
