I recently bought a HP 12-c(financial calculator), bought the book “An Easy Course in using the HP 12-c” by Chris Coffin which helped alot getting started , but “Calculator Power” by Jon Richards was the most fun because it teaches while you’re doing the calculations and you dont realize your actually learning . By the end of the book you’ll be amazed at what you can do how you can penetrate the mysteries or seeming mysteries of the yield. Good luck, Fred

Calculator ?: Jon’s book or Calculator package? - Posted by kate-

Which is better Jon’s book or the calculator package offered elsewhere on this site? It has lots of bells and whistles so I am wondering if maybe it doesn’t have enough substantial info to make it worth the $149. --Especially if I can get everything I need from Jon’s book. However, I have literally never used a financial calculator and so maybe the extra handholding would be helpful.

Anyone have any opinions on this (besides Jon)?

I can’t comment on the other software of calculator package but BOTH of Jon Richards “Calculator Power” books are well written, easy to follow, and provide numerous specific examples of how to run various essential calculations for a cash flow professional.

When I previously had a larger staff we regurarly used the books as “training” instructional materials.

I don’t see how you can go wrong with Jon’s book(s).

To your success,

Kate:

I only have “Calculator Power!”, but, based on it’s content, I’m comfortable in recommending both it and “More Calculator Power”.

Happy calculating!
