No matter how knowledgeable and financially savvy we are, there are times we all lie in bed at night and wonder if we really know what we're doing with our money. In It's Not So Funny When It's Your Money, financial advisor Stuart Horowitz draws on a career's worth of anecdotes about real people in real-life situations (many of them all-too-familiar) and offers the perspective and advice we wished we had at the time -and are glad to have now. Whether you're at the beginning of the financial road and just starting a family, winding down your career, or well into retirement, you'll find something to recognize in the situations these characters find themselves in. So be prepared to laugh at yourself a little while you read about sensible ways to make decisions about your investments, retirement, income taxes, estate planning, and assets that are even harder to quantify: balance and peace of mind.
