Money Matters: 21 Practical Lessons For Everyday Success

Keeping track of your personal finances can be immensely stressful. Are you adequately preparing for the future or just treading water in your current financial situation?

Finance guru Adam Torres is here to help you move forward and form a sound, secure financial plan. His guide, Money Matters, features twenty-one lessons to teach you the basics of investments and financial planning.

Torres teaches you how to evaluate risk, assess your current investment portfolio, establish an emergency fund, and navigate the housing market and mortgage maze.

With a solid foundation, Torres then turns his attention to investments. He cautions you not to rely on pensions but to take responsibility for your own retirement income. The world of investments may seem intimidating, but it is easy to understand if you have the right guide.

Torres's last section offers lessons on maintaining family financial success and adjusting to life's curveballs. He shows you how to make sure your children are financially literate, your assets are protected during divorce, and your estate doesn't kick-start any family feuds.

With these building blocks of money management, you can get creative, have fun, and still build a secure future for yourself and your loved ones.
