Specializing in a “straight from the hip” delivery, Savage covers a lot of information. This book is more computer and internet-oriented than most, and includes an excellent chapter on setting up your bank accounts on Quicken or Microsoft Money. (I did this years ago and it is great for taxes, especially if you have a small business—all your transactions are downloaded and can be assigned a customized tax category as you review them. You can also connect credit card accounts, and print out reports any time to see how you are spending your money.)
She gives lots of web resources, and covers a lot of material related to finances. This is not directed particularly at women or at midlife women, though she has a chapter on issues that relate more to women.
