About This Book
In Deal with Your Debt, personal finance columnist Liz Pulliam Weston provides strategies for managing debt effectively and reveals how some debt can contribute to your fiscal health and even help build wealth. Weston identifies "toxic debts" and offers advice on paying them off in the shortest possible time frame. This book offers guidance on personal finance topics from home equity loans and retirement plan borrowing to small business loans. Topics include: building a personal three-step debt management plan; questions to ask before you tap your home equity; hidden pitfalls of home equity borrowing; the truth about student loans, car loans, and retirement loans; how to recognize debt trouble and prevent it, and loans to stay away from at all costs.
Liz Pulliam Weston is a MSN Money columnist and author of the Q&A column Money Talk, which appears in newspapers nationwide, including the Los Angeles Times, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, and the NewarkStar-Ledger. She appears weekly on CNBC's Power Lunch and regularly on other radio and television programs, including NPR's All Things Considered.
