Synopsis

So You Graduated College is a book written specifically for the recent college graduate.

So You Graduated College is much more than that. It is a colorful and insightful book packed with valuable information, advice, and personal experiences, which young adults can relate to. Of course it will help prepare the reader for success in the real world, but it is also enjoyable to read and will capture the recent graduate’s attention. So You Graduated College will help the recent graduate... - Gain control over spending habits - Effectively manage and eliminate credit card debt - Make informed and appropriate investment decisions - Understand how to file and minimize income taxes - Purchase a first home - Get the most out of a car purchase - Determine which types of insurance to purchase - Choose amongst the various banking options - Improve their negotiation skills - Understand the benefits of retirement funds - And much more
