Sometimes that little voice in your head knows exactly what to ask. "You earn $150,000 a year, so where the hell is your money going?" Or what about this little gem that pops up every so often when you catch up with the girls- "How can she afford that?" Or maybe you're in a relationship that you're desperate to leave but that voice always says- "You can't afford to." Maybe your biggest fear is retiring in a polyester outfit because you haven't saved enough to live the fashionista lifestyle you're accustomed to. This book is for every woman who unashamedly has that voice in her head. After 20 years on a brand like Money, I've come across just about every possible question. Hopefully you'll find the answers to some of your questions in here.

Most parents do more harm than good when they try to teach their children about money. They make saving seem like a punishment, and force their children to view reckless spending as their only rational choice. To most kids, a savings account is just a black hole that swallows birthday checks. David Owen, a New Yorker staff writer and the father of two children, has devised a revolutionary new way to teach kids about money. In The First National Bank of Dad, he explains how he helped his own son and daughter become eager savers and rational spenders. He started by setting up a bank of his own at home and offering his young children an attractively high rate of return on any amount they chose to save. "If you hang on to some of your wealth instead of spending it immediately," he told them, "in a little while, you'll be able to double or even triple your allowance." A few years later, he started his own stock market and money-market fund for them. Most children already have a pretty good idea of how money works, Owen believes; that's why they are seldom interested in punitive savings schemes mandated by their parents. The first step in making children financially responsible, he writes, is to take advantage of human nature rather than ignoring it or futilely trying to change it. "My children are often quite irresponsible with my money, and why shouldn't they be?" he writes. "But they are extremely careful with their own." The First National Bank of Dad also explains how to give children real experience with all kinds of investments, how to foster their charitable instincts, how to make them more helpful around the house, how to set their allowances, and how to help them acquire a sense of value that goes far beyond money. He also describes at length what he feels is the best investment any parent can make for a child -- an idea that will surprise most readers.
