This book is a fine introduction to insurance for young people who find themselves having to deal with a topic unfamiliar to them. It is well organized and includes stories to make it more interesting. Other than the fact that it didn’t go into detail regarding agents - some work for insurance companies while others are independent - it would be a good book for young adults. It had information about annuities and riders that although helpful, didn’t seem to fit as this was not a book about investments. Perhaps if that chapter was at the end after exhausting all types of insurance it would have made sense as an add on. But I found it confusing to find that chapter as part of a book on insurance. Young people would appreciate a book like this. It could fit well into a high school curriculum that prepares students about to go off on their own.
