If you’re in your twenties or thirties, you probably think you’ll never live as well as your parents. And who can blame you?

You’re carrying more student debt than any previous generation, while confronting an extremely tough job market in incredibly uncertain times. It’s not surprising that many of you have turned to credit cards—or your parents—to help you get by. Even if you are fortunate enough to have a job and a 401(k), the uncertainty of the economy, surging prices, and the volatility of the market make you worry if you’re investing in the right way. For three decades and counting, Beth Kobliner’s bestseller Get a Financial Life: Personal Finance in Your Twenties and Thirties has been the leading financial guide for young people. Whether you’re trying to climb the corporate ladder or doing your own thing, whether you’re single or partnered up, whether you’re financially inclined or fiscally challenged, this book offers advice that has stood the test of time—as well as fresh information to make smart decisions today. In this new edition, Kobliner teaches you how to pay down debt, get a good return on your savings, and plan for your future. Straight from the latest research, learn how to choose the right bank, avoid excessive fees, and rein in spending. You’ll get unbiased advice on the latest trends in personal finance—from neobanks and finfluencers to online fraud and cryptocurrency. And you’ll get answers to important questions: When is it smart to rent rather than buy (and vice versa)? How can I really improve my credit score? When is the right time to invest in the stock market—and how? How do I save money on my taxes? Get a Financial Life has already helped half a million people get a handle on their money, no matter how much or little they have. No wonder it’s remained the young money bible for more than thirty years.

Jim Cramer's Getting Back to Even

Cramer, James J.
In his new book, Cramer offers the most detailed guidance he has ever given on how to invest in a changed market. Savvy investors will not just survive; they will thrive. Cramer begins with six rules for protecting the money you have and making sure that you have the money you need. (Rule Number 3: Skip the first four stages of portfolio grief: denial, anger, bargaining, and depression.) Your portfolio won't fix itself; you have to do that. It's easy to close your eyes and pretend that it all never happened, but you'll never get back to even that way, much less profit from the opportunities that this new market offers to investors who know where to put their money. One key to making investment decisions is to watch what the mutual-fund managers are doing and -- better yet -- to anticipate their moves. Cramer tells you how to do this. Their decisions will move markets, and you want to profit from these moves. Cramer explains why dividends may be another key to picking winners in the post-crash stock market, and he introduces a category he calls the accidental high yielders -- stocks whose prices have taken a beating, boosting their yields. Some of these stocks could make a major move upward; Cramer tells you how to spot the ones that could take off. For the first time in any of his books, Cramer offers a portfolio of twelve stocks that he says are poised to profit from the economic recovery. And he gives investors a list of five regional banks that could make big moves and return a handsome reward to shareholders. As always, Cramer explains why investors can't just take his word but have to "buy and homework" on these stocks to make sure that their stories don't change. If you're near or in retirement, your opportunities to recover and profit are more limited than those of younger investors. Cramer tells you why stocks should still be an important part of your investment portfolio. And for younger investors, Cramer explains why you must take advantage of what could be a rare opportunity to buy stocks at fabulous prices and set up a terrific portfolio. Cramer offers advanced tips for investors who have the time and are willing to invest it to profit from the post-crash stock market. Call options may seem like exotic and dangerous investment tools, but Cramer shows why they can be a conservative investing strategy that can bring quick returns in a recovering market. He explains how to use IPOs and secondary offerings wisely to juice your investment portfolio. And as if all that weren't enough, Cramer has come up with twenty-five new rules for the post-crash market. (Rule Number 4: It pays to follow the dumb money.) Getting Back to Even is indispensable for any investor still reeling in shock from the 2008-2009 market collapse and wondering where to go from here. From investment strategies to specific stock recommendations, it's the foundation for the portfolios that will soar when the economic recovery takes hold.

An Essay On The Influence Of A Low Price Of Corn On The Profits Of Stock (1815)

Ricardo, David
""An Essay On The Influence Of A Low Price Of Corn On The Profits Of Stock"" is a book written by David Ricardo in 1815. The book discusses the relationship between the price of corn and the profits of stock, focusing on the impact of a low price of corn on the economy. Ricardo argues that a low price of corn can lead to higher profits for stockholders, as it reduces the cost of labor and increases the demand for manufactured goods. He also discusses the potential negative effects of a low price of corn, such as the impact on farmers and the potential for social unrest. The book is considered a classic work in the field of economics and is still widely studied and referenced today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
