He has written for aol money & finance, time.com, the Boston Globe, the Daily Beast, and the New York Times, among other media outlets.
The bestselling author of Debt-Free U returns with an entertaining finance guide for twentysomethings Zac Bissonnette paid his own way through college and, in his junior year, wrote a bestseller about how anyone can get a great education without signing their dreams over to Sallie Mae. He won acclaim from some of the biggest names in personal finance, including Suze Orman, Dave Ramsey, Andrew Tobias, and David Bach. Now he’s back to help a group that desperately needs it: recent grads with passion, dreams, and debt-to-income ratios that make the federal government look like Warren Buffett. For many in their early twenties, newfound independence and peer pressure to splurge lead to decisions that could ruin their lives. But if they can be smart during their first ten years after college, young people can build a foundation for a life more secure, stable, and relaxed than those of their parents. Bissonnette offers fresh insights into everything from job hunting to buying a car to saving for retirement—with detours to discuss wine connoisseurs, Really Broke Housewives, and Lenny Dykstra. He reveals why FICO scores are overrated, <strong>online</strong> job applications are a waste of time, car loans are for suckers, and credit card rewards are a scam. Blending pop culture and serious research, this entertaining book will show you how to make good choices today so you can be richer, smarter (and better looking!) for years to come. Praise for Debt-Free U: “A real mule kick to the higher educational status quo . . . He’s a contrarian, and his book is packed with studies and statistics to back up his analysis. It’s a magical combination that college-bound students and their parents should read.” —USA Today “He has written the best and most troubling book ever about the college admissions process.” —Jay Mathews, The Washington Post “Provides a ton of food for thought for your college planning process.” —The Christian Science Monitor suGGesteD oRDeR m ay • P o R t f o l i o 73
