Personal Finance at Finance Gourmet

You've seen hundreds of finance related websites and books. Why read Finance Gourmet?

Well, I'm a Certified Financial Planner and everyday someone asks me a finance question. Almost every time, my answer is, "It depends." I'm not being difficult. It's true! So, what I've tried to do is write complete fully honest articles which are packed with details and information. The facts, the tips, the tricks, the gotchas, the tax implications, the exceptions, the rules, the ifs, ands, or buts, it is all in there. It might take six or seven pages, but you'll get the information you need. Hey, if you are going to make important financial decisions, then you need the facts, even the complicated ones.

More content every day

I have hundreds of articles written in my head, and it seems like every day I think of another idea, or twist, or gotcha, or really great tip. The problem is that I can only type so fast. So, check out the Latest Articles to catch up on the new stuff, and use the links to find specific answers. Make sure and bookmark this site. You'll want to know how to get back here when something comes up later. They say that the average person makes an important financial decision every six months, so it won't be long before you need this information again!

Check out the Blog

I have a blog that goes along with the rest of the site. Sometimes it's easier just to crank out one idea or tip in a blog style than in a more traditional site. I'd recommend getting the RSS feed to stay on top of everything.
