- 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
Bob Rosefsky has been giving safe and sound financial advice for over thirty years, helping the public achieve personal prosperity.
Here′s what the professionals have said about Bob:
"Very few of the journalists I′ve dealt with over the years have Bob′s breadth of knowledge, professionalism, and integrity."— Rob Gianangelli, Public Affairs Office Internal Revenue Service
"What made Bob′s work so successful was that our audience knew he cared about them. His sense of future trends proved remarkably accurate. But, most of all, Bob was able to deliver his material in such a way that said to our viewers, ′I know what′s troubling you, and I′m here to help you.′"— Terry Crofoot, News Director KABC TV, Los Angeles
"Bob is gifted with a unique teaching skill. He is able to make the complex seem simple, and he does so with wit, patience, and humility. Bob is a true professional with unimpeachable integrity."— George Green, President and General Manager KABC Radio, Los Angeles
"Our national audience, which is relatively affluent and sophisticated, particularly enjoyed Bob′s sense of humor and his ability to make complicated matters easy to understand."— John Darin, Vice President Network News Financial Broadcasting Network
