Description: Product Description
Many Americans don’t understand personal finance. If you’re among them, it’s probably not your fault. Personal Finance 101 is not offered in our schools – not in high school, not even in the best colleges and graduate schools. It should be. There are common financial problems and mistakes and different people keep making those same mistakes over and over again. Personal Finance For Dummies, 3rd Edition, like a good friend, can stop you from falling into those traps.

This book is for anyone who wants a crash course in personal finance. It’s basic enough for a novice to get his or her arms around thorny financial issues, but advanced readers will be challenged to think about their finances in a new way and identify areas for improvement. In a nutshell, this easy-to-understand guide is for anyone who wants to

  • Get out of high-interest consumer dept
  • Plan for major goals
  • Start an investment program
  • Minimize high piles of bills, receipts, and junk mail

You’ll explore what it takes to start an investment program as you diagnose your current financial health, set new goals, and reduce your spending. Personal Finance For Dummies, 3rd Edition, also covers:

  • Figuring out where your dollars are going
  • Solving debt and credit problems
  • Reducing your tax burden
  • Picking up wise investments
  • Paying the right price for insurance
  • Figuring out where to go for more financial information

Best-selling personal finance writer Eric Tyson is a master at keeping it simple. And his third edition of Personal Finance For Dummies, can help you consider your higher life goals and non-financial priorities (your family, your friends, and your causes) and how you can best accomplish those with the financial resources you have.
