Get Control Of
Your Cash Flow
It's easier than many realize to
get control of vour cash flow, cut
your debt and start a saving plan
Much of the answers to these prob­
lems lie in knowing where to put
your money and learning how to
develop a tax-saving strategy’.
How well you do in the '90s may
depend on the investment advice
you get now.
For example, stock market vola­
tility has almost no effect on where
stocks go over the course of a year.
It does, however, provide opportu­
nities for disciplined investors to
increase holdings at lower prices
That's the opinion of the editors of
Money Magazine, whose eagerly-
awaited book. Smart Money Moves
for the '90s. will soon hit local book­
stores.
Since tax-saving strategies deal
with what's probably the biggest
bite of all in your budget—the inevi­
table, often inscrutable demands of
the IRS—the book shows you how to
deal w ith a tax preparer and what
specific mistakes to avoid this year.
Most important, it helps you learn
to slash your taxes using loopholes
left in the law after tax reform.
Among the other topics the book
deals w ith are the secrets of profit­
able home-ow nership, taking care
of your family and finally, how to
finance a secure retirement.
For over 15 years, the editors of
Money have reported with author­
ity on personal finance and invest­
ing. Their analyses and advice have
helped millions of Americans make
more money, invest it more profita­
bly and spend it more enjoyably.
Howto
be in
two places
at the
same time.
