Much hoopla was made last week about FICOâs new Open Access program whereby FNBO, Barclays Card and Discover âItâ customers will now receive their FICO credit scores on their statements, for free.

One of the greatest fears adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) holders have is the risk their interest rate may increase. After all, ARMs come with initial teaser rates that are priced below market to lure in borrowers in the first place, so upon reset, rates are mostly expected to increase. Itâs for this very reason that the… Read More »Beware: Your Adjustable-Rate Mortgage May Reset Lower

Got kids? If so, you’re probably hoping to send them to college. And you know it won’t be cheap. College costs are rising faster than inflation, and have been for decades.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t afford a good education for your kids, even if you have a modest salary or other substantial expenses. I’m not going to pretend college isn’t expensive: Full scholarships are less common in real life than they are in the movies. You’ll probably have to spend a pretty penny for the privilege of attending your son or daughter’s college graduation.

It’s been nearly three years since I preached my complete “cash-flow” sermon. Today I’m going to preach it again. This will be review for long-time readers (or for folks who’ve read Your Money: The Missing Manual). For everyone else, one of the core tenets of the Get Rich Slowly philosophy is this simple truth: To build wealth, you’ve got to spend less than you earn. It all boils down to cash flow.
