Money 911

Money 911 CoverYou have money questions.  I know you do, because they pop up in my inbox throughout the day.  And I answer many of them, either through my syndicated newspaper column or with a panel of colleagues on our weekly Money 911 segment on NBC’s Today.

But it’s still not good enough, especially in these economic times, when many of your questions have likely become – or are on the verge of becoming – emergencies. So I came up with the idea for a book, also called Money 911, that answers every question I’ve ever been asked, and then some.

This book is a bit different from my others, in that it is intended to be a reference guide, and has been carefully indexed so you can flip to the section you need and absorb the information.   Trying to decide whether to refinance your mortgage?  Turn to page 184. Want to learn the best way to negotiate the price on that new television?  Page 121 has the answer. Looking for life insurance?  You’ll find all you need to know to select the best policy for you on page 255.  All in all, you’ll find the answers to well over 300 questions, along with resources – other books, organizations, web sites and government agencies – that I’ve carefully vetted, in case you need to learn even more.
