Deal with Your Debt: Free Yourself from What You Owe
Struggling with debt? Get realistic help that’s actually useful.
This book reveals why most “conventional wisdom” about debt is just dead wrong. For most people, it’s simply impractical to pay off every dime of debt, and live forever debt free. In fact, doing that can leave you a lot poorer in the long run. You’re more likely to give up, or pay off the wrong debts. You could leave yourself too little flexibility to survive a financial crisis. You could neglect saving for retirement. You might even wind up in bankruptcy — just what you’re trying to avoid!
In this extensively updated guide, you can discover how to control and manage debt effectively. You’ll learn which debts can actually help build wealth over time, and which are simply toxic. You’ll find up-to-date, real-world strategies for assessing and paying off debt, money-saving insights on which debts to tackle first, and crucial information about everything from debt consolidation loans to credit scores and credit counseling. Weston offers practical guidelines for assessing how much debt is safe — and compassionate, realistic guidance if you’ve gone beyond the safety zone. If you’ve ever worried about debt, you’ll find the new edition of Deal with Your Debt absolutely indispensable.
There Are No Dumb Questions About Money: Answers and Advice to Help You Make the Most of Your Finances
There’s a myth in our society that some people are just naturally “good” with money. So naturally, everybody else must be “bad”–or at least, dumb–if they’re not sure what to do.
The reality is, no one is born a money expert. Those who are “good” with money had to learn: by reading, asking questions, and consulting people who know more than they do. No one knows everything, and the only dumb questions are the ones you don’t ask.
This collection of money questions and answers can help you solve your most pressing concerns about your finances. You can buy this ebook on iTunes or on Amazon.
