Robert Kiyosaki, of rich dad fame, has written many books and created workshops to help people earn more and save more for retirement. His approach is a common sense approach to help people understand that they are the best at knowing what they want to do with their money.
David Bach, of Millionaire & Finish Rich fame, has set up many programs and books to help individuals and couples to make, invest and save more money. He has some great ideas to help people save such as the Latte Factor, and others.
Jim Cramer, of Mad Money fame, has a popular program on CNBC as well as many books that teach people of all walks of life on how to invest. I've used his programs in my classroom to help students learn how to invest, and his energy is contagious, as students used his techniques to play a realistic wall street simulation so they can learn how to invest in the real world.
And finally, Dave Ramsey, of Financial Makeover fame, has DVD set, workshops across the country, radio show, and successful book series for everyone to learn how to budget. His programs have been so effective, that I've used his base program when I created a core Personal Finance course, that is now required of all students in my state. Dave Ramsey lost it all, but that helped him start over more smartly and he's shared his ideas to help others be successful.
So now the choice is yours, whether you wish to read about one, or all four authors, or maybe you have a better program - please share it below! As I always tell my students, the best budget/investment program is the one you actually follow - too many give up, but all four listed have basic principles that will help you succeed - good luck, and if it's possible, happy tax day (hopefully it will better next year)!
