This book helped me get back to the basics of managing my credit - because unbeknownst to and forgotten by many, credit indeed needs to be managed! Also the chapter on budgeting was very useful. Stephen Bucci uses wit and simple everyday language to make the book not only easy to understand and follow, but also engaging. A good purchase for those who need a refresher or reference for real life credit related problems!

Steve Bucci's "Credit Repair Kit for Dummies" expertly covers a broad range of topics, providing information that is important for people to know regarding how to manage credit. Indeed, Steve's book really cracks the code on consumer relationships with credit - understanding credit reports and what goes in them, how to build and maintain good credit, and how to improve bad credit and get out of debt. It is a fine, easy to understand resource to assist consumers in navigating through the sometimes complex world of credit.

This was a wonderful book full of lots of details on how credit works. There are lots of tips on how to improve one's credit and a good discussion of budgeting, identity theft, and dealing with collectors.

I'd recommend this to anyone who needs help with their finances.

5 out of 5 stars Check out the Part of Tens   January 20, 2006

8 out of 10 found this review helpful

For a quick lesson in money management I don't know if I've seen anything better than the Part of Tens at the end of the book. All the high points are covered and if you need more information it's easy to find. Steve Bucci took a dry subject and made a surprisingly entertaining book - I highly recommend it!
