Don't worry, I'm not asking for money

I'm interested in getting a subscription to "Money" magazine. Do any one of you read that magazine. If "Money" is not the best, what similar magazines would be of interest and why??

I believe that's the only magazine I'm subscribed to these days.

I read it from time to time. I just like the topics it covers.

I read Kiplinger's for tips on personal finance.

I wish I had some personal finance to read tips on.

Jess

At this point, you aren't really missing out on much, mostly sorting through speculation and legit info.

Maybe I should start reading this kind of information to prepare myself for when I finish college and get a real job. I wonder if there are any economic speculators who have a good track record of analyzing and predicting what course of financial planning to do for the next few years. Those are the guys/girls I'd like to read.

I'm interested mostly in managing short and long term funds. I also want to read about people that have successful small business. See how they built it up. What resources they used to start business.....

Wait a sec, are you trying to become a loan shark? You've already got the crazed rottweiler to bite people if they don't pay you back...

I thought Muhammad Yunus was very inspirational. You should read his book - Banker To The Poor: Micro-Lending and the Battle Against World Poverty.

I hadn't thought of that and it's an excellent idea, especially since I must choose two non-science electives for my senior year starting in September.

Forbes and wall street journal is two I try to read when I'm at the bank or at the library trying to figure out what my niche in the money game is.

It depends on who is teaching what perspective... If you're in Harvard or some Ivy League school, you're screwed... Here's a massive dump for you.

I used to do this research until I left this behind a year ago to try to embrace the outdoors life. Nowadays, I only read a few articles from critical sources whom I learned to be reliable with a good track record of what was predicted and whether it happened. Look at this one article before I do a partial field dump. This is an article from Wall Street Journal dated yesterday, May 27th, titled "The Recovery Starts With Sound Money: The willingness to work for the sake of future prosperity is a universal human quality, but people must believe there is a link between effort and reward." The excerpt is below, and the rest can be found at Judy Shelton: The recovery starts with sound money | Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee

-------------------
BY JUDY SHELTON

The euro is beset with fiscal calamities that threaten its downfall, and markets in the U.S. are roiled by uncertainty over the government's financial regulatory legislation. But don't worry. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner meets with European finance officials today to discuss the economic situation. According to a Treasury Department statement, they will focus on "measures being taken to restore global confidence and financial stability." So everything is under control.
-------------------

Most things my sources and I have seen in advance have happened.

There are three major events we saw coming: deleveraging; debt implosion; and asset deflation. Deleveraging in the OTC markets run by black-box computer models, marked-to-model rather than marked-to-market like they're supposed to be, that operate faster than human operators are capable of intervening. Debt implosion when the debtors fail to make good on their obligations through getting in over their heads or losing their jobs. Asset deflation when the housing market busted and a lot of people went upside down on the loans and couldn't get out before the teaser terms and initial small payments ended. The last 5 years has been like a safari into the financial jungle, except you needed a computer and shorts and t-shirt instead of a Land Rover and safari clothes. It was one heck of a ride.

The dump below is only a portion of works I have used to build my understanding of what is happening around us.

And then I read sites like CNN, BBC News, ABC News, USA Today, Reuters ONLY to determine what the government via mainstream media is NOT telling us through misinformation and omissions of facts. I also looked carefully at whether the media was pulling away from or being pushed closer to what the government wanted us to hear. That's why I was putting in 8~12-hour days. What has been comforting in the past is reading all that is going on, and yet seeing outside in the streets that the world goes on. It does. The sun rises, we get up and go to work, people come to my store to buy things to go overlanding, car camping, backpacking, traveling out of the country, things get done, I come home and see these beautiful travel stories online. My hope is it continues this way, and we find a way out of this and restore some sanity to this financial world we find ourselves in and understand better how that impacts economically what happens in México, but my research indicate some very hard lessons ahead for those who forget history.

I hope that none of this comes to pass, but I'm no longer in the position to be shocked should it happen.

Let me know if these links don't work, and I'll fix it, if I can.
