Synopsis

For previous generations, living within your means was a simple formula. Now, with the staggering rise in healthcare, medical, and housing costs, millions of people find themselves skating from paycheck to paycheck with no idea how to move forward. As the most read personal finance columnist on the Internet, Liz Weston has heard the questions and has the answers. Her 10 Commandments of Money will help listeners avoid critical mistakes, survive the bad times, and thrive in the good ones. Just a few of Westons invaluable pointers include how to: Balance Your Budget, Pay Down Toxic Debt, Get the Right Mortgage, Pay for College, Save for Retirement, and Maximize Your Financial Flexibility. Liz Westons goal is to provide the practical guide to the brave new world of money. What Sylvia Porters Money Book was to the 1970s, The 10 Commandments of Money will be for the 2010s.
