"Money troubles wreck more marriages than all the Don Juans and scarlet women combined. Since there is no sounder protector of love in marriage than the wise adjustment of finances, it is up to you to see that the bride and groom could

start together living the plan suggested in GOLD AHEAD, their golden wedding would be golden indeed with love still in their hearts and gold in their purses."

The Times, Madison, Wisconsin

"You will love having read it. This book is a thorough explanation of personal finance rules. I was fascinated reading the entertaining stories that teach you the complex principles of the financial world while you have fun. It seems like the author had such command of the subject that he could present the subject matter with extreme simplicity." Einstein said, "If you cannot explain it simply, you do not understand it well enough."
