Fighting For Your Financial Future Round 2 : The Personal Finance Fundamentals Everyone Should Know About Money Management

"The information in this book is extensive.
You can use it to sound glib at the water cooler, on the golf course or at a cocktail party. But that would not be it’s best use.
Instead, use it to improve your life. The information contained in this book will provide you with the questions to ask, and motivate you to find an advisor you can trust. The next step is to have them prepare a comprehensive, written financial plan for you. A financial plan, like a fine tapestry, should be artfully woven to produce a valuable life chart. Next, implement the plan. Get your house in order. Understand your cash flow. Harmonize your investment portfolio so that it will support you throughout your retirement. Properly insure the risks of life that are: illness, disability, death, property damage, lawsuits and a lengthy long-term care stay. The latter can put you and your family in bankruptcy and/or dependent on a government welfare program. Lastly, carefully plan for your estate so that your worldly goods go to those whom you choose, not some agency of the government.
“Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
Willing is not enough; we must do.”
