Get Suze Orman's Financial Planning Book For Free

Rumor has it that we're in the middle of a financial apocalypse. I wouldn't know a lot about that, but the guy who carts off my leftover caviar every Thursday mentioned something in passing. If I am right, then we all need as much financial advice as we can get our caviar-stained fingers on. So how about a free book on financial management?

This week only -- the offer expires on Thursday, January 15 -- you can download Suze Orman's new book, Action Plan, for free from Oprah Winfrey's Web site.

A couple of clarifications are in order. First, Suze Orman must be good, because she's on TV a lot. Second, I found out because my wife mentioned it to me; I most certainly did not find out by watching Oprah. And finally, I have thumbed through the book (it's a 1.2MB PDF file) and it looks informative. It includes chapters on credit, retirement planning, real estate, and investment strategies. Click while you can. After Thursday, Action Plan goes back to costing $10 on Amazon.
