New Feature: Pillars of Wealth
I've been toying with this idea for some time, and only recently began to put it together:
I think that personal finance is such a vague word to many people. The initial reaction is, "I can never learn about all this - it's just too much." My response to that is that it's much easier to figure things out if you just break it down into easy-to-understand chunks or categories. For example, I've divided personal finance into eight categories:
1. Budgeting
2. Credit / Credit Cards
3. Debt Reduction
4. Banking
5. Investing
6. Retirement Planning
7. Estate Planning
8. Taxes
I've completed the Budgeting section, and will begin working my way down the list. These are not necessarily in any particular order, although I do believe that budgeting is the foundation of personal finance.
Anyway, check out the new Pillars of Wealth section, also linked at the top of each page.
