My thoughts:
 The title here says it all, with a few twists.  I remember growing up and hearing when I was growing up how they wished they knew then what they know now!  Well, I know exactly what they meant by that.  My Mother tried to  talk me out of my first marriage, but NO I knew more than she did, and it did not work out. In fact it was a very violent marriage that by the grace of God I made it out alive.
In this book it not only teaches the day to day learning skills that we need to know but it also teaches us about the necessity's for Marriage, and finances.  Even at 36 I sit back and say if I only knew then what I know now, and in reading this book, I found myself still taking mental notes of what he is saying,  Even though I am 36 and not 18,  I am using the book as a start over guide.  I am sure every marriage could use a little help in some form and if not a marriage maybe it is finances or just how to deal with the things the world throws at us!
If you are looking for a great book to read and to learn even a small life lesson, then this is the book for you and your Family.  I have a son that is 14, he will be 15 in July and my plans are to share this book with him.  In hopes that he can and will take the positives out of it.
