Here’s what I’ve been reading this morning:
‘How to Lie With Charts’ – Ben Carlson – A Wealth of Common Sense
- Using a chart regarding home prices “collapsing”, Ben talks about charts and how they can be manipulated to make a number of different points. It’s important to factor in as much context as possible when reading charts and other pieces of financial information.
‘Where You Should Put Your Money (And When)’ – Nick Maggiulli – Of Dollars and Data
- Figuring out what comes first when developing a game plan for your finances can be tough. Do you pay down debt first, or save for an emergency fund? Nick dissects these common questions in his latest post.
- Estate planning doesn’t need to be super complex, but the toughest part can sometimes be navigating the personal relationships involved along the way. This post talks about smoothing out estate plans with family BEFORE someone passes away.
- We talk about the difference between fee-based and fee-only a LOT. In this article, Anne discusses some potential drawbacks to working with fee-based advisors and how oftentimes the client’s best interest is sacrificed to preserve assets under management.
ENJOY!
