Dummies Review

This book review is about Credit Repair Kit for
Dummies, 2nd Edition.
Managing your money should be required as
part of your school education, right beside
parenting and marriage 101. Since it is not
part of anyone's education until perhaps
college level a book like Credit Repair Kit for
Dummies, 2nd Edition would be a great
graduation gift. After all, wouldn't less
people find themselves drowning in debt if they
had a clear understanding before finding
themselves in deep financial trouble?
Here is an easy to read and comprehend
primer on the world of credit. The reader will
get a complete financial planning guide to help
them start of on the right foot with solid
financial planning. You'll learn how
credit works and why as well as how to avoid
pitfalls like foreclosure and bankruptcy. Bucci
covers all the basics on protecting yourself
from identity theft, removing errors from your
credit report, how to maintain a good credit
score or improve it as you move ahead.
Everything you need to know to stay out of
over-your-head debt is found within these
pages.

"This book is good if you want
general credit information but the title
"Credit Repair" is
misleading...."
Portion of actual user comment on
Amazon.com
For young people just starting out a basic
understanding of credit and how or why it is
important. The book is not a credit repair kit
but more of a simple way to understand the
basics. For repairing badly damaged credit this
will be of little use to you. Several readers
who have submitted reviews to both site noted
above have suggested that "credit repair" is
misleading in the title and there are better
books for learning how to do more than dispute
an error in your credit history. Perhaps that
is why it was placed into the For
Dummies collection? The book may be well
written and informative about credit but
doesn't offer what the title implies so I
bestow it with only a 3 Star rating.
