A unique aspect of this text is its active approach. This text will not only get your students thinking about their current situation and financial goals, but also encourage them to put these in writing to use as a guide and revise over the course of their lives. New for this edition, sections are oriented around specific action-items for students. The more a student involves themselves in the assessments, exercises and worksheets provided, the more they will discover about their current habits and how to improve them for greater financial freedom.
Students have many different financial goals, but none are more important than having a basic understanding of financial issues and peace of mind with regard to their decisions. The ultimate goal of Focus on Personal Finance is to get students to this point as a first step to achieving the many financial goals they have set for themselves.
And now, McGraw-Hill’s adaptive learning component, LearnSmart, provides assignable modules that help students master chapter core concepts and come to class more prepared. In addition, resources within Connect help students solve financial problems and apply what they’ve learned. Kapoor’s active approach and superior pedagogy combine with a complete digital solution to help students achieve higher outcomes in the course.

The book has zero tears, no wrinkles . And no smudges. ZERO WEAR AND TEAR WHATSOEVER. I believe as if I got it new from my college bookstore.
The best part is... the shipping was for free and the cost is beyond cheap—Less than $10.00. I do not even know how’s profit was made on a book with such great condition .
On a final note, the book is not the most current edition. I think edition the edition is not the current edition, but the content is identical in terms of chapters and other details. Great deal and awesome condition
I highly recommend
