Book excerpt: Do you have too much month left at the end of the money? Does just thinking about your personal finances leave you feeling stressed out and irritable? Are you weary of spending your hard-earned money just to impress others or to be up with the latest trend? Are you fed up with "get rich quick" opportunities that do nothing but expose you to unnecessary risk? If you've answered "yes" to any of these questions, you need to learn the Financial Facts of Life. All too much of today's financial world revolves around sales pitches, wishful thinking, inflated expectations and selective listening (hearing only what we want to hear). Financial Facts of Life tells it like it is. For more than thirty years Bob Rosefsky has been helping people manage their money wisely, and his accumulated wisdom and experience reflect the realities of life. Not the illusions. Not the flights of fancy. The realities. Bob's objective is to lead you to your own personal prosperity. Personal prosperity is more than just money in the bank. It includes a sense of self-esteem . . . the satisfaction of being self-sufficient . . . the ingenuity to live within one's means with pleasure and dignity . . . and, perhaps most important, the capacity to enjoy the beautiful things in life unsullied by money demons. If you're looking for valuable lessons from life's experience, for a chance to learn from the mistakes of others, and for ways to relax the grip that money has around your throat, this is the book for you. "You can always go out and make more money. But you can never go out and make more time."— Bob Rosefsky Bob Rosefsky has been giving safe and sound financial advice for over thirty years, helping the public achieve personal prosperity. Here's what the professionals have said about Bob: "Very few of the journalists I've dealt with over the years have Bob's breadth of knowledge, professionalism, and integrity."— Rob Gianangelli, Public Affairs Office Internal Revenue Service "What made Bob's work so successful was that our audience knew he cared about them. His sense of future trends proved remarkably accurate. But, most of all, Bob was able to deliver his material in such a way that said to our viewers, 'I know what's troubling you, and I'm here to help you.'"— Terry Crofoot, News Director KABC TV, Los Angeles "Bob is gifted with a unique teaching skill. He is able to make the complex seem simple, and he does so with wit, patience, and humility. Bob is a true professional with unimpeachable integrity."— George Green, President and General Manager KABC Radio, Los Angeles "Our national audience, which is relatively affluent and sophisticated, particularly enjoyed Bob's sense of humor and his ability to make complicated matters easy to understand."— John Darin, Vice President Network News Financial Broadcasting Network
Download or read book The Global Findex Database 2017 written by Asli Demirguc-Kunt and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011 the World Bank—with funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation—launched the Global Findex database, the world's most comprehensive data set on how adults save, borrow, make payments, and manage risk. Drawing on survey data collected in collaboration with Gallup, Inc., the Global Findex database covers more than 140 economies around the world. The initial survey round was followed by a second one in 2014 and by a third in 2017. Compiled using nationally representative surveys of more than 150,000 adults age 15 and above in over 140 economies, The Global Findex Database 2017: Measuring Financial Inclusion and the Fintech Revolution includes updated indicators on access to and use of formal and informal financial services. It has additional data on the use of financial technology (or fintech), including the use of mobile phones and the Internet to conduct financial transactions. The data reveal opportunities to expand access to financial services among people who do not have an account—the unbanked—as well as to promote greater use of digital financial services among those who do have an account. The Global Findex database has become a mainstay of global efforts to promote financial inclusion. In addition to being widely cited by scholars and development practitioners, Global Findex data are used to track progress toward the World Bank goal of Universal Financial Access by 2020 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The database, the full text of the report, and the underlying country-level data for all figures—along with the questionnaire, the survey methodology, and other relevant materials—are available at www.worldbank.org/globalfindex.

Book excerpt: Saving money is as easy as taking a breath. If you are a teen or a young adult who is in the process of entering college or completing college, lending institutions have selected your name for a pre-approve credit card. It is reported that 45% of young adults have more than $20,000 in student loans or credit card debt before they reach their 25th birthday. But you don't have to fall victim to long-term payment plans any longer. This book is a flashlight in a dark room. It will help you find your way out if you turn it on. It is filled with important information that will teach you how to eliminate debt quickly, while on your path to financial wealth.

Money has a formula, and unless you apply the right techniques and procedures within the formula, you may find yourself in some tight places. You can live a debt-free life and enjoy the fruits of your labor while you are young and energetic. You can design your financial portfolio in a way that will give you better options; like working part-time, taking an early retirement, or traveling and seeing the world. When you apply these key principles, you will never again be enslaved to credit cards, student loans, or long-term car payments.
Download or read book Economic Facts and Fallacies written by Thomas Sowell and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2011-03-22 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic Facts and Fallacies exposes some of the most popular fallacies about economic issues-and does so in a lively manner and without requiring any prior knowledge of economics by the reader. These include many beliefs widely disseminated in the media and by politicians, such as mistaken ideas about urban problems, income differences, male-female economic differences, as well as economics fallacies about academia, about race, and about Third World countries. One of the themes of Economic Facts and Fallacies is that fallacies are not simply crazy ideas but in fact have a certain plausibility that gives them their staying power-and makes careful examination of their flaws both necessary and important, as well as sometimes humorous. Written in the easy-to-follow style of the author's Basic Economics, this latest book is able to go into greater depth, with real world examples, on specific issues.
