Well, they’re not. Or so says my MSN Money colleague Liz Weston, aka the most widely read financial columnist on the Internet. Her latest book, “There Are No Dumb Questions About Money,” is this week’s giveaway.
Liz bases her text on real questions people have asked. In other words, this is information that people like you and I can use.
As a writer she is direct but also compassionate. While she understands how people can get into money trouble, she also is clear that the best person to help you usually is you.
If you have a question or issue you’ve been struggling with lately, I urge you to go to her website, AskLizWeston.com. You will get the benefit of her expertise with the comfort of anonymity.
Note: This title is published as an e-book. It will be sent to the winner as a PDF that can be read on Mac or PC.

Sorry for double post. Just delet it and this. I’m on my phone and stool not good with it.
I will read it, then pass it along to each of my kids!
Facebook too.
My questions sound mighty dumb to me. I would welcome the chance to be reassured by Ms. Weston.
I get you bright and early in my email.
Sounds like a great read. Would love to read it!
I get your posts via email. Thanks for the giveaway!
Should be a good (e)book – the more people communicate about money the better off (pun intended?) they will be. Many of the PF bloggers share insight into getting into debt and not the least of it is not understanding how credit really worked, or admitting to the follow-the-crowd-and-just-buy-it mentality. Money issues should not be shame-inducing.
I love Liz almost as much as you. I always have a lot of questions so I hope I win this one. Hope you are settling in up north.
Sounds like a good book!

Thanks for the heads up on the book. I have to admit that I like you best. You are more down to earth and your frugal ideas are always helpful, but she is informative as well. I already “liked” you on facebook. I hope you are happy in Alaska!
I am happy to say I just found your site. I appreciate the opportunity to get the free ebook and perhaps to ask dumb questions.
I’m curious as to the type of questions were asked.
Thanks for having a great contest, hope I win.
I’m a fan of Liz, I’d love the book!! 🙂

What I like best about Liz is that following her led me to Donna.
