My Giveaway

Donna Skeels Cygan, one of the nation's top financial advisors, has generously offered to give one of my lucky readers a hardcover copy of her ground-breaking book The Joy of Financial Security: The Art and Science of Becoming Happier, Managing Your Money Wisely, and Creating a Secure Financial Future. It has a retail value of $28.95.

While money can't buy happiness, financial health has been found to be positively correlated with mental health. So the goal of the book is to help you become happier through increased financial security. The author skillfully combines her financial expertise with research in the fields of psychology and neuroscience and translate them into plain language. The book provides a practical guide for those looking to manage their money wisely.

The Joy of Financial Security teaches its readers about the essentials of financial security (such as tracking net worth, monitoring savings and spending, and estate planning), tax and investment strategies, how to choose the right personal finance professional when you need one, and how to develop a sustainable retirement plan.

The author keeps stressing the benefits of getting the entire family involved in the learning process. She also promotes the idea that spending on experiences brings more happiness than spending on things. The book is thick, but not meant to be read in one sitting. In fact, the author encourages you to pick and choose to read what's most relevant based on the detailed table of contents. It's a great book to keep on hand and refer to whenever necessary.
