Talking Money

In Talking Money, I offer a detailed guide on how to get your personal finances in order. I already knew firsthand that, once minor money problems are under control, the big picture falls quickly into place.  The idea is to talk frankly and clearly about the need to take control – and offer clear and simple ways of actually getting there.

Some bits of practical advice include:

• Understanding how to cut the interest you pay on credit cards, not only on all the cards in your wallet, but on your mortgage and home equity loan as well
• Picking a stock or mutual fund to fill in a portfolio and correctly allocate your assets
• Finding and saving money for your kidsʼ college fund
• Solid tips on how to purchase your first home
• And more!

This is a good book, particularly for beginners, to guide you over financial hurdles, preparing you for long-term goals and financial security.
