A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing - but a little knowledge is all most of us have about money. Most of us, in fact, are secretly confused about what an endowment policy really is and would never dare venture into the rarified world of futures, options and derivatives. But finally, help is at hand.
Using easy-to-understand language, Michelle Doughty tells you everything you really need to know about your finances. Designed in an A-Z format, with cartoons by Gray Jolliffe, THE JOY OF MONEY explains hundreds of terms from the basics like mortgages and pensions to more advanced concepts like warrants and convertibles. Uniquely, it guides the reader to the sections that are most important to the average person (like pensions) as well as giving advice for those who want to brave the stock market or who need to deal with the Inland Revenue.
Friendly and reassuring, THE JOY OF MONEY will give confidence and encouragement to even the most fiscally challenged.

Revue de presse

'The ideal post-Budget book...Michelle Doughty is a stockbroker turned journalist who has the happy knack of producing concise and comprehensible definitions, and in the process removing many of the mysteries which surrounds high, and low, finance' Sir Patrick Cormack FSA MP, THE HOUSE MAGAZINE
