YOUR MONEY MILESTONES: A GUIDE TO MAKING THE 9 MOST IMPORTANT FINACIALMILEVSKY M. / DECISIONS OF YOUR LIFEwydawnictwo: PEARSON ED, 2010, wydanie Icena netto: Your Money Milestones illustrates how four principles inspired by basic arithmetic can be applied to manage the most important financial decisions (money milestones) people face over their entire financial lifecycles.
This book offers a complete framework for thinking about money that’s every bit as provocative as Freakonomics. Drawing on the newest research into psychology and personal finance, Milevsky helps you identify the true value all of your resources; budget for hidden liabilities in your future; plan to spend your total resources smoothly over time; and prepare for unexpected events that could upend even the most careful planning. You’ll discover why children are short-term investment liabilities but may be long-term pension assets, why winning the lottery may increase your chances of going bankrupt, and why giving up control of your retirement nest egg might actually make you happier. The insights are fascinating and useful throughout your life whether you're deciding what to study, contemplating your first home purchase, deciding whether to keep contributing to your 401(k), or considering when and whether to retire. Moshe A. Milevsky, Ph.D. is a tenured finance professor at the Schulich School of Business at York University (www.yorku.ca) in Toronto, Canada, and the executive director of the nonprofit IFID Centre (www.ifid.ca). He is also the president and CEO of The QWeMA Group (www.qwema.ca), a software company that develops intellectual property and numerical algorithms for the financial services industry. He also writes a monthly column for Research Magazine that is read by financial advisors and planners in North America.
