Debt is Slavery
Michael Mihalik
This book should appeal to anyone who gets intimidated by the size of huge volumes or fat paperbacks.
In a no-nonsense fashion, Mihalik dishes out basic, neat and solid advice based on his own experiences. By the time he was 24, he was in debt for $27,000 but was only earning $28,500 every year.
Though deceptively thin, you will find various topics tackled - secured and unsecured debt, mortgages and credit cards, and how struggling with debt due to unwise decisions is akin to slavery. This book is a great overview on the subject.
