I would grab a cookbook to go with it - maybe one of the 5-ingredient ones. http://samssecrets.wordpress.com/2009/12/21/more-cvs-coupons/ If you use the $10 appliance coupon, and the $5/$20 purchase coupon available at CVS, you can get the crockpot for only $5 this week.

The first book was written in the 90's and the author advocated buying treasuries, which at the time were yielding around 6.5%. The market has certainly changed, and the book reflects these changes and provides some new advice. @Don: Yes, the latest edition has more up-to-date financial information.

I checked on Amazon, and it looks like the latest revision was Dec 10, 2008. So that probably means the financial numbers probably has been update too. Perhaps that will be a Christmas present to give to myself :) I’m going to have to read that book “Your Money or Your Life”.

I've been trying to think of something for my parents (what do you get them when they have started cleaning out stuff in anticipation of downsizing in the next few years). This would be especially good now since mom will not drive in the winter & dad just had total knee replacement surgery two weeks ago, so he will not be going too far for a while.

She just finished her BA, so I told her it's time to kill of some brain cells with pop culture. The plan I got will allow her to stream movies right to her computer so she can have entertainment almost instantly! I figure it's a great way for her to learn civilian life now that she's not working two part-time jobs and going to school.

I agree that the Dave Ramsey book may not be for everyone on your list. An adult child, or perhaps a brother or sister just starting out (or in need of a financial turnaround), would be a great target audience for this book. I would not, however, hand it out to coworkers or those who might take it as a symbol of you giving unsolicited financial advice. @Gary: Thanks for your comments.
