"Information wants to be free." Well, while the internet is not
old by any stretch of the imagination, it is now...
Embrace Change
Copyright 2005 Lori Radun Last Sunday I was sitting in on a class we conduct for newcomers at our church. One of our pastors said, "If we don't change, we aren't growing, and if we aren't growing, we are dying". Isn't that so true? If you want your...

Get Rid Of Your Asset Management Problems Once And For All
If you are a business owner, even the owner of a part-time lawn mowing service, you still need to pay attention to financial asset management. I am the owner of a small business.
I work out of my home and rarely need credit or payments for anything and I still need to keep track of my asset management. Luckily my wife was a financial professional so I rarely need to use others.
She was capable of doing our taxes last year better than the professionals we hired. I never heard the end of that! But not everybody is as lucky as I am. I have the good luck to have a very wonderful spouse who is willing to help with what I want to do. However, if you are not as lucky you need to speak to professionals or educate yourself.
Educating yourself about asset management is not easy. Lets face it, not all of us are equal. Some are quicker thinking than others and some learn better than others. Not all of us were at the right side of the grade curve in school.
For those of us on the left side of the grade curve it is important to know your limitations. If you educate yourself about history, the arts or humanities you are in no danger if you make a mistake or misunderstand a key point.
Nobody lost money because he didn't understand the works of Homer or properly appreciate a Wagner opera. But plenty of people have lost their shirts over not understanding money.
You can find many asset management self help courses on the internet or in the library that you like. Get quick rich schemes and plans for investing your retirement are just a click away for anyone.
This doesn't mean that you should try this yourself unless you understand it. Many people make the mistake of assuming that they are smarter than they are (many also think that they are dumber than they actually are but this has a smaller downside).
Don't let yourself get fleeced because of pride or foolishness. If you don't understand how something works don't mess with it.
