which is a better subscription for young adults "Money" or "Kiplinger"? Do do you know of any others
Find a broker and get them a nice summer job ==shadowing good brokers. I used both some good stuff, don't think I got any where financially because of them. I turn all my finances over to my wife and she uses the dart method. Coming up on the number 3 with 6 digits behind. Kidding about the wife and darts--it's really a monkey. Ok still kidding. But the ins and outs
Business Week or the Financial Times - but make sure they know that most of the business columnists are in bed with businesses or their editors are!!!
The advice about specific stocks and bonds, and to some degree about the mutual founds is pretty suspect - more important is general financial advice provided, and training the mind to think about economic forces and how small things like individual stocks fit into the larger picture of economic patterns.
I always listen to my brokers, but not buy---mutual funds I try to avoid (not always) ---I always ask about magazines and brokers what's in it for them? Research a bit the summer job at a brokerage is a good learning tool---
Are they "churning"? I look at' whats in good mutual funds , follow them and buy the money makers. Penny stocks never worked for
me. When all the advise you get on this Boneyard about financial aspects---then try the monkey and dart--FACTUALLY, it has worked as well as most advisors. That's a proven fact.
