Get your spending under control and create a budget that will get you on the road to financial freedom. In an age of information overload, many simply don't have the time, knowledge or organizational skills to create a simple, functional system for managing personal finances. Now in its fourth edition, The Budget Kit: The Common Cents Money Management Workbook is a best-selling classic that has helped hundreds of thousands of people across America develop effective budgets and gain financial freedom. Even if you are using a financial software program, you will find the concepts in The Budget Kit to be essential to your understanding of budgeting.
In the completely revised and updated fourth edition, Lawrence tackles the unique challenges faced in the digital society in which we live. The increased use of debit cards, automatic withdrawals, direct paycheck deposits and online bill payment systems have distanced us from our money like never before. Lawrence guides you through the electronic shift to a cashless society, and keeps you connected to your money. This new and updated edition also comes with budgeting starter software to help you achieve your financial goals.

As a parent, you can try to tell them what budgeting and saving entails, but the information was MUCH better received in the form of this book. As she sat reading it and said, "Oh, that's a good idea", I felt better about sending her into the world...and her first real job. This book covers everything a novice budgeter needs to know. Add it to the list of must haves for the newly graduated.

With your finances. I recommend this workbook to all of those looking to master their debt and track their spending. The first step to financial success is to monitor spending and then subsequently control and pay down debt. This workbook allows you to get "down and dirty" with your day-to-day expenses and really see where your money is going. I also really like the various budgeting and net-worth tracking components. There are also helpful tips throughout the book to gain financial empowerment. I highly recommend this book and would encourage whoever purchases it to try the Mvelopes CD for the online budgeting system. I also think this workbook would be beneficial for teens and pre-teens to get a better handle on money and debt management.
