Just what the title says

This book is a great resource for young adults. It is easy to follow and yet provides what young adults truly need: the ability to know what career path to take by helping them navigate the decisions. It provides budgeting tips, engagement tips, and the need to take responsibility as an adult. It encourages the reader to feel motivated to achieve their goals and also be responsible. I highly recommend it for graduation gifts from high school or college or for those struggling with budgeting!
