Simplicity of life, even the barest, is not a misery, but the very foundation of refinement; a sanded floor and whitewashed walls and the green trees, and flowery meades, and living waters outside... — William Morris
Won't retirement be great? No more need to update your knowledge and improve your skills. No more colleagues to interact with. No more contributing to the nation's gross domestic product. No more reason to get out of bed in the morning... for two decades! Then you die.
Ah, retirement. What could be better than a reliable income that doesn't depend on how you spend your time? You could lie around in your pajamas all day, subsisting on beer and doughnuts, and you'd still receive checks from your pension, brokerage, and Social Security. (Now that's one way to Rule Your Retirement!) And well you should — you've worked for decades for the...
A lot of limbs and organs must be maintained in order to lead a healthy, robust financial life: saving and spending, debt, insurance, investments, taxes, and — the topic nearest and dearest to my heart — retirement.
The other day, I got something in the mail that looked like it would be another credit card bill. I sighed to myself as I tore open the envelope, resigned and prepared to write another check. But, surprise — it wasn't a bill. It was a check. For more than $100. From my credit card company! Specifically, from my Fool Visa card.
Court Reporter usually focuses on an important case pertinent to many attorneys. But since summer is officially here, we’ll take a break from that to instead offer you a comical piece written by three recruiters from BCG Attorney Search. Enjoy!Given the nature of practicing law, almost all articles on the subject are likewise-and appropriately-serious in nature. Topics...
A week at Speed Metal Band Boot Camp for Teens sounds delightful. But you're no longer a teenager. Come to think of it, you're really not that much into speed metal anymore, either. So when the charge for the tuition shows up on your Visa bill, you figure it's either a karmic hint to expand your musical horizons or that a rock star wannabe is using your credit card to...
There are lots of things to be wary of when investing. You need to keep your unhelpful human tendencies in check, for one thing. Succumb to greed and you may hang onto an overvalued stock too long, hoping to wring a few more dollars out of it, only to see it crash later.
Experts forecast that this year's hurricane season, which officially begins today, June 1, will be another doozy, with an above-normal number of storms.
Every day I strive to simplify the unnecessarily complicated, to remove the veil of secrecy and confusion that cloaks financial decisions, and to illuminate the path to economic enlightenment with an easy-to-follow blueprint. It is in that spirit that in recent months I have been shirking deadlines and letting my voicemail and email boxes overflow in order to devote myself...
Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made. — Robert Browning
Quick, Mom, turn on the TV. (And don't let Dad change the channel.) The newscasters in Lawrence, Kan., should be abuzz about ''FACTA'' and how you can get free copies of your credit reports starting March 1.
If you're confused about which type of retirement account to choose, here's the quick and easy (and probably smartest) strategy: Put your money in a Roth IRA. Compared with an employer-sponsored retirement account — such as a 401(k) or 403(b) — or a traditional IRA, the Roth is by far more flexible and likely will lead to more money in retirement.

A few months ago, I wrote a short article highlighting just how high some credit card interest rates are. The rates were so high that I have had trouble getting them out of my head. Permit me to quote myself:
Thank you for reading. I hope you'll stick around until paragraph four, or even five, but if you don't I'll understand.
Last weekend, my wife was cleaning out her old office whilst I was preparing for a Monday meeting with our accountant. It is tax season, after all. For most of the day it was the usual: occasional breaks to play with the kids, lots of moving boxes hither and thither, and me pattering away on the keyboard.
There's so much unpleasantness involved in keeping financial house — receipts that multiply like bunnies, the incessant parade of bills, ever-changing tax laws, retirement account acronyms, and a forest's worth of ''consumer agreements'' that become obsolete before trash pickup. I'm not sure which is more stressful: Trying to make smart money decisions or getting through...
Any attorney's career that can count winning a major decision against Microsoft as one of its highlights obviously qualifies that attorney for inclusion among the industry's elite. Add to the mix a major role in the 2000 case that would ultimately decide who would serve as president and a client roster that includes the likes of the New York Yankees, Calvin Klein, Tyco,...
Yes, indeed. The eternal question. The oft-asked inquiry of young and old attorneys alike: How do I find a work/life balance? Whether you are a first-year associate or a ninth-year, it is likely that you have posed this question to yourself, your mentor, your law school career center, your recruiter, and your cat.
