Answer :

answer:I took a course in “personal finance” recently. Our “textbook” was On My Own Two Feet by Manisha Thakhor and Shanor Kedar. It’s supposedly ” modern girl’s guide to finance”, but our class was co-ed, and it didn’t seem to bother any of the guys, beyond their initial laughter. It is a great book, and it’s only like ten bucks. I don’t know if this is the type of resource you’re looking for, but it could be helpful. the authors also have a pretty cool website at http://www.onmyowntwofeet.com. As far as feedback, I think you’re definitely on the right track with talking about accumulating “stuff” and pre-emptively striking at the glazed-eye effect. Sounds cool! Let us know how it goes!
