Synopsis

Do you have too much month left at the end of the money?

• Does just thinking about your personal finances leave you feeling stressed out and irritable?
• Are you weary of spending your hard–earned money just to impress others or to be up with the latest trend?
• Are you fed up with "get rich quick" opportunities that do nothing but expose you to unnecessary risk?

If you′ve answered "yes" to any of these questions, you need to learn the Financial Facts of Life.

All too much of today′s financial world revolves around sales pitches, wishful thinking, inflated expectations and selective listening (hearing only what we want to hear).

Financial Facts of Life tells it like it is. For more than thirty years Bob Rosefsky has been helping people manage their money wisely, and his accumulated wisdom and experience reflect the realities of life. Not the illusions. Not the flights of fancy. The realities.

Bob′s objective is to lead you to your own personal prosperity. Personal prosperity is more than just money in the bank. It includes a sense of self–esteem . . . the satisfaction of being self–sufficient . . . the ingenuity to live within one′s means with pleasure and dignity . . . and, perhaps most important, the capacity to enjoy the beautiful things in life unsullied by money demons.

If you′re looking for valuable lessons from life′s experience, for a chance to learn from the mistakes of others, and for ways to relax the grip that money has around your throat, this is the book for you.

"You can always go out and make more money. But you can never go out and make more time."— Bob Rosefsky
