About This Book

Are you too busy to pay much attention to your money? Do you worry that maybe you haven't been doing the right things? Jane Bryant Quinn, the trusted voice in personal finance journalist, helps you choose the best financial ideas and products and create a successful and long-lasting financial plan. Quinn's money management viewpoint pulls no punches - she says to forget all the complicated stuff the financial industry sells because you don't need it, it costs too much and some of it is downright bad. It's designed to make the banks, brokers, and insurance companies rich, not you.

Topics include ways to: save more money without feeling pinched; get rid of debt the automatic way; keep yourself safe, with the right amount of insurance at the lowest cost; zero in on the right mortgage; pick the best college savings plan; understand your finances in ways you never did before, and find the best ways of investing money to earn superior returns over the long term.
