Household Finance

There are many financial decisions that we all must make during our lives, such as how much to save from income
on a regular basis in order to fund a comfortable retirement; when insurance and credit are judicious (and when
they should be avoided); how much risk to assume in our investment portfolios; what investment mistakes should
we try to avoid when we invest on our own and when it might be sensible to delegate our investments. These
decisions and the toolkit to approach them fall under the rubric of household finance. This book, the first broad
but accessible treatment of household finance, addresses them in a systematic but entertaining fashion.
