For typical homeowners, the monthly mortgage payment is either their largest or, after income tax, their second-largest expense item. When you're shopping for a mortgage without the proper knowledge, you could easily waste many hours of your time - in addition to the financial losses suffered by not getting the best loan you can. Choosing the right mortgage can help you save money for more important financial goals, such as higher education and retirement.

Home prices are too high. Buying a home is the pinnacle of adulthood, but as we all aware, home ownership isn’t exactly easy to navigate, especially for younger folks. Unless you’re completely debt-free, get help from parents, and disciplined enough to live below your means to save money, buying your first home in the future can seem more like a fantasy than an actual possibility.

A limited liability company (LLC) can be the right choice for any business owner seeking to reduce liability and protect his or her assets. This type of entity has several advantages over operating a sole proprietorship or partnership. Unlike a sole proprietorship or partnership, an LLC shields the owner or owners from liability, and unlike a more complex corporation, there is no board of directors to answer to. In this audiobook, you will discover the ins and outs of an LLC and find out if it’s right for you.

Good summary but no depth
The book provided the very basics of home buying, but doesn't really provide a detailed description of what to do. Most of the information is really obvious and a lot of it is not really applicable in most places only in very rural area where the housing market is very slow.
