Product Description:
After a job layoff and real estate troubles, Tim and Tricia Smith are buried in debt. Their only hope to avoid bankruptcy lies in a loan from Tricia?s estranged grandmother. But instead of lending them the money, Crazy Grammy Ti sets them on a course of action that not only cleans up their financial mess, but changes their lives. A timely parable, Lessons from the Depression reveals the easy steps you can take today to turn your finances around. Without using confusing charts or graphs, financial planner Darlene Gudrie Butts lays out a simple plan anyone can follow. She draws on the strong principles used by people in the Great Depression and channels these through the fun and feisty character of Grammy Ti. In teaching her lessons to her errant granddaughter, Grammy Ti covers such topics as: Beating credit card bullies Breaking old habits Boosting income to balance the budget Savings vs. debt reduction Having fun for free And much more! With positive and practical lessons at the end of each chapter, Butts offers essential emotional and financial advice to help you map out a sound financial strategy. Let the timeless wisdom of Grammy Ti and the Greatest Generation help you take control of your financial future!

Setting up this book as a fictional account of one families financial crisis made this a wonderfully easy read. Nuggets of common-sense were scattered amongst the stories, and the book was full of timeless wisdom that we often lose sight of. Hearing bits of the author's personal story also help to ensure that the book is anything but your typical dry financial how to. Recommended for those in crisis, and anyone who wants to be in better shape financially.
