Smart is the New Rich (ePub)

Time is on your side--smart money management for
Millennials

Smart is the New Rich: Money Guide for Millennials is an
interactive, step-by-step guide to all things money. From credit,
student debt, savings, investing, taxes, and mortgages, CNN's chief
business correspondent Christine Romans shows this newest
generation of earners how to build wealth. You'll learn the
old-fashioned approach that leads to a healthier financial
lifestyle, and open the door on a straightforward conversation
about earning, saving, spending, growing, and protecting your
money. You'll learn how to invest in the stock market or buy a
home, even if you are still paying off student loan debt. Romans
offers expert insight on the "New Normal," and why the rules of the
credit bubble--the one you were raised in--no longer
apply. Checklists and quizzes help solidify your understanding, and
pave the way for you to start putting these new skills into
action.

For thirty years, the financial rules for life revolved around
abundant credit at the ready. A quick look around makes it obvious
that those rules no longer work, and Millennials just now coming of
age and entering the workforce need a new plan to build a solid
financial foundation and healthy money habits. This book puts you
on the right track, with step-by-step help and expert guidance.

mandatory. Smart is the New Rich: Money Guide for
