"An investment in knowledge pays the best interest." - Benjamin Franklin Sometimes, the sheer volume of information available to us today serves as a hindrance to making sound and timely decisions. In the Army, a leader's ability to consolidate this information for his soldiers is crucial to battlefield success. With children, a parent's ability to help them do this can be crucial to a happier, more successful life. Money: A Soldier's Advice to His Children is an upfront and practical guide initially written as a set of letters to aide one commander's children through the maze of financial decisions that face us all, in the event he could not help them do it. Drawing on more than 15 years of experience in the United States Army, Brett Roberson has merged an incredible amount of information with practical guidance to create a concise, understandable manual.
