This is an introductory personal finance text that integrates emotional and relationship well-being with financial well-being.
"It really helps you wrap your head around what you're learning and come to a complete understanding of the course material."
I found this book to be more relevant to a college student today. It describes in depth how to avoid debt and what to do when you find yourself in that situation and to avoid getting in financial scams.
"With Vantage, I set up my course in under 10 minutes, which is unheard of...I love Vantage!"
It is more practical; more targeted for practical information needed by college age adults, who are more concerned with their financial future. [The book] has very good definitions up front in the chapter of the key concepts. These are clearly and simply defined. The chapters have some good step by step processes—renting for example.
"Extremely valuable! Interactive, engaging and simple to use."
Carioti's Personal Finance is interesting, concise...and is easy reading that keeps the reader's interest. It does not over discuss a topic, rather the main ideas are presented to make a point.
"I have used every other major digital platform that exists, and I can say that Vantage has no equal."
There is an emphasis on self-awareness not included in other texts.
"...Really going to deepen students' understanding and...boost their comprehension."
