This was published in 1988, so I suppose some of the details about investments and taxes might be dated--those things change. But this presents the basics well including: Portfolio Planning; Dealing with Your Bank; The Stock Market; Bonds; Investing with Uncle Sam; Mutual Funds; Insurance; IRAs; Benefits: Keoghs, and 401(k)s; A Secure Retirement; Choosing a Financial Adviser, Your Home, Investing in Real Estate, Consumer Credit, Taxes, Estate Planning. It discusses those issues in a Question/Answer format and makes what can be some thorny and dry financial matters understandable.
