DEBORAH BAILEY BROWNE PRESENTOR AT KEY BANK’S FINANCIAL FORUM FOR WOMEN WITH JEAN CHATZKY OF MONEY MAGAZINE AND THE TODAY SHOW.
Deborah Bailey Browne had the privilege of being a presenter on Strategies to Succeed in a Downturn Economy. At the annual Key Bank Forum for Women, Jean Chatzky was one of the featured speakers and breakout sessions were then offered to participants. Ms. Bailey Browne was a presentor at one of the breakout sessions and spoke about why it was important to focus on women small business owners, ingredients for success, options and resources to manage cash, ways to expand your reach, creative marketing ideas and attracting along with retaining employees.
As the featured speaker, Ms. Chatzky gave insights into her new book: "You Don’t have to be Rich". Her theme was how to achieve financial happiness. Steps you can take now to make the most of your money. It’s not how much you make, it’s making the most of what you have.
Further Information Regarding Ms. Chatzky’s book:
Not the sort of questions you usually hear from a personal finance expert, especially one as popular and respected as Jean Chatzky, of Money Magazine and The Today Show. But in these difficult times, when many of her fans are struggling with job insecurity, declining investments, and fear of the future, Chatzky decided to write a different kind of personal finance book. Instead of just explaining what to do with your 401(k), she set out to explore the big picture: what makes a happy, successful life and how much money you really need to have one.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE RICH reveals what the happiest people in America have in common when it comes to managing their money, and what the rest of us can learn from them. For instance, they have distinctly different habits and behaviors about things you might consider minor, such as how often you pay your bills, and what you do with your bank statement when it arrives in the mail (hint: shoving it unopened into the desk drawer isn't a good idea.)
Guided by the research, Chatzky offers clear-cut strategies that you can implement to help you feel more in control of your money. They will help you spend smartly, eliminate your debts and both set and reach your financial goals. Be prepared to take a good hard look at your money habits. A questionnaire in every chapter will show you where your money management tactics are serving you well, and where they fall short. Then you'll be able to use the answers to improve your financial habits and ratchet up your happiness a notch or two.
