ATLANTA, Oct. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Ready to achieve financial independence and financial security? Who isn't these days? The problem is it has never been more difficult. The economy has most just getting by financially and few able to save or think about investments. That is, until now. The recently released book, Moneylicious: A Financial Clue for Generation Y, http://www.moneyliciousbook.com, by Ornella Grosz, takes on the tough issues such as investing, saving, achieving financial independence, etc., and with a fresh, witty approach explains how to secure a financial future even in these difficult times.

Moneylicious has received stellar reviews, including one from Sharon Lechter, co-author of Think and Grow Rich - Three Feet From Gold and a member of the first President's Advisory Council on Financial Literacy. Lechter states, "Moneylicious provides a great financial roadmap. Ornella's willingness to share her own stories not only engages the reader but creates a learning environment where the basics of money and investing are not only explained, but shared in a way that is entertaining as well as experiential. This book should be required reading for all young people in high school and college."

Moneylicious clearly speaks to college students and young adults who are more apt to make the most financial mistakes and continue these mistakes later into life, not fully understanding the gravity of the early choices. However, the chapters on retirement planning, identity theft, and disability insurance, etc., make this a valuable read for all ages.

Utilizing a BS in Finance, Grosz's position as a retirement planner, and extensive research, Grosz wrote on subjects few understand and therefore rarely accomplish. Breaking down tasks such as how to invest money, save for retirement, establish good credit, and even identity protection, Grosz provides detailed financial success tips and ways to avoid costly mistakes. By offering a more youthful approach to finances and money management Grosz provides workable solutions that lead to greater financial gain.
