"Financial consultant Fisher and researcher McGovern provide basic financial information for readers in their 30s and 40s. This volume, which builds upon Fisher and McGovern’s Idiot’s Guide to Personal Finance in Your 20s and 30s, uses 16 chapters, divided into three sections, to cover foundational basics (budgets, credit), changes with life events (birth of a child, buying a house, divorce), and future-planning (investments, retirement). Frequent subheadings and chapter summaries keep readers on track. The book concludes with 55 pages of glossary, resources (print, web, apps, podcasts), and sample forms (prenup, pet-care trust). VERDICT Provides a step-by-step foundation of generally conservative financial information, suitable for all ages and collections." —Library Journal
