ADD and Your Money is an excellent financial resource for people who suffer from ADD. There are several things that I like about this book.
1) It covers all areas of personal finance in great detail — managing bills, debts, investments, insurance, etc.
2) It gives specific and practical strategies tools, tips and techniques for improving one’s personal financial situation.
3) It is written in an optimal manner for people who have ADD. This enables maximum absorption and retention.
Overall, I cannot recommend this book highly enough. The authors have put out a very useful and important product.
Rating: 5 / 5
ADD and Your Money could also have been reviewed in our ‘Health’ section for its tips relating to ADD management, but is considered here because the self-help focus is on money management, not health. It takes ADD tendencies and links them to financial pitfalls directly related to ADD symptoms, offering a system for keeping track of bills, creating budgets, and other challenges the ADD personality finds particularly difficult. It’s a top pick for any library where ADD patrons seek keys to everyday living.

I have purchased this book ADD and Your Money after listening to a teleconference online with Dr. Stephanie Sarkis through an ADD support group that I participate with. The materials discussed during the conference was very informative and nailed all the problems I have with managing money.
I found the book to be useful and simplistic to the point that I didn’t feel information overload when reading it. Each chapter discussed was straight forward and to the point of how to see things and what I need to do to get myself on track financially. The book doesn’t take long to read which is a plus for me with my busy lifestyle. I also appreciate this book that its helped with my guilt that I can learn how to manage my money.
I would also suggest to anyone that has adult ADD/ADHD and has difficulty managing money to take the course Financial Peace with Dave Ramsey. In conjunction with this course and Dr. Sarkis book I feel I’m on the right track. Cut up all credit cards and use cash. Don’t use debit cards unless its an emergency. If our previous generations could survive without them so we can we.

Rating: 5 / 5
I was very disappointed with the overall tone of the content….very elementary and condesending. I was expecting much more.
