Q. I have read that there are many forms of Personal Finance Debt and we people use these types of debts in our daily routine. Is there anyone who can please answer this query of mine.
A. It is true that there are different forms of personal financial debt and we use these different forms in our daily routine to pay for different expenditures. The most common form of personal finance debt is credit card debt, payday loans, and other consumer finance, which are often at elevated interest rates than long term secured loans, such as mortgages. Personal finance debt is also known as consumer debt and the financial data or statistics in which you cannot see the category of personal finance credit or debt then I would recommend you to look for consumer debt category instead.

How many New Moon questions should we expect on Yahoo Answers?
Q. Hundreds, thousands? Will they all have bad grammar? Will they all center around Robert Whatshisname? Will we see them in other catagories of Yahoo Answers, like Personal Finance or Environmental? Should I even bother to ask questions about The Godfather in Movies category when New Moon comes out?
A. Well, thanks to adding to the millions we'll see. Then, after New Moon dies down a bit, we'll see Eclipse questions for a year, then Breaking Dawn. The madness will never end, so get used to it.

Can anyone suggest a good book on personal finance?
Q. Can anyone suggest a good book on personal finance? I have looked through the half.com $1 selections and the library, but it seems many of the books on this topic are filled with 100's of pages of common sense (i.e. give up your latte's, put 10% of earnings in a high yeild savings). I would like something that covers the basics for retirement planning, and personal investment, etc. Any suggestions?
A. I think it depends on where you are in your knowledge about personal finance.
For instance, if you already know to stash all possible cash in first, savings, 2d 401k, 3d Roth, 4th Other--then when you have a considerable stash-- you are ready for the next step-- which for me was a broker where I stuck #1, #3 and #4-- and after retirement, also #2. The total provided considerable leverage in my account which drove down my per trade cost.
I learned from finance magazines ( if you itemize they CAN be a deduction) which will repeat basic information about the third year around.
I bought US Savings Bonds thru work-- as my emergency $.
Any increases in pay went directly to one of the savings.
My power company allowed me to pay extra over my electric bill which then went into a stock account.
I bought a investment dictionary at a garage sale.
I bought a Investment for Dummies at a garage sale.
I lived UNDER my income.
I used my broker's online site to research what I didn't understand until I thought I did understand.
I invested and learned the hard way, but gained enough that I kept at it. When I retired I paid cash for my house and my car from what I'd put away in "other".
I truly understand your question. The answer as I see it is:
Save money and stash it in as many ways as possible-- max out your 401k with matching as much as possible. If there is a difference in what you CAN put in an IRA and what you have put in the 401k-- open a ROTH and do it. Don't forget that emergency cash fund-- figure your worst scenerio and put it where you can get to it in 15 days or so.
That's the best I can do for you. It worked for me.
Good luck and constant saving!
