Book Reviews of Talking Money: Everything You Need to Know about Your Finances and Your Future
Book Review: Basic advice that is relevant, no matter when you read it!
Summary: 5 Stars
When watching NBC's TODAY show, I look forward
to hearing segments featuring financial editor Jean
Chatzky . . . they're always right to the point and in clear
English, and I never fail to learn something.
Recently, I came across a taped version of TALKING
MONEY: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR
FINANCES AND YOUR FUTURE--written and read by
Chatzky . . . though it had a 2002 copyright date, I still found
the information quite fresh and relevant to anybody
needing to know more about this important topic.
In fact, I'm going to get a copy for my daughter and her
fiance, if just so they can fully grasp this one concept
that is presented:
Pay off debt with savings. In a year, the difference [for her]
between making 4% on a savings account vs. paying 18%
in interest was some $420.
This sounds so basic, yet I'm amazed by how many folks
don't get the concept . . . hearing it from Chatzky, however,
really drove the point home in that she explains how
she learned it shortly after she graduated college (and
was personally struggling to make ends meet).
TALKING MONEY also clearly explains the four keys
to making your money grow:
* Buy and hold. Forget day trading.
* Don't try to time the market. Instead, use dollar cost averaging
and regularly invest.
* Don't hesitate; automate your investments.
* Keep your investment expenses down.
Lastly, I loved this simple bit of advice that Chatsky gave before
making purchases that aren't necessities: Wait a day. You'll often
view them differently after 24 hours.
