Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumers have known about credit reports for a long time; we're well aware that lenders rely on them to determine whether they want to do business with us. Any time we want to buy a house, rent an apartment, or take out a loan, it's a safe assumption that one or several reporting agencies are going to be contacted to provide our credit history. But we don't always realize that there's a single element on that report that determines success or failure, and that's a three-digit number called a credit score. Created by Fair Isaac and Company, this formerly secret FICO number was until fairly recently available only to lenders and businesses, and although it's hush-hush no longer, many of us still don't understand it because there hasn't been enough information on what it is and what exactly lenders are looking for. And we certainly haven't known how to make it work for us rather than against us. In The Complete Idiot's Guide to Improving Your Credit Score, author Lita Epstein clearly explains what your credit score is and how it impacts your life. Rather than putting the focus squarely on credit emergencies, it provides everything readers need to know to raise their score and keep it high, now and in the future.

Book excerpt: The financial crisis that has gripped this country since last September has had so many twists and turns, it would make for a great drama -- if it all were not so real and damaging. Companies are shutting down and laying off workers, 401ks are melting away, and the government is spending $700 billion dollars to bail out banks and financial institutions -- and that's only the beginning. The financial services industry, and the many industries that depend on it -- from housing to cars -- is in intensive care. So what happened? How did we get to this point of financial disaster? Is the economy just a huge, Madoff-esque Ponzi scheme? It is a complicated and confusing story -- but Daniel Gross of Newsweek has a special gift for making complicated matters easy to understand and even entertaining. In Dumb Money, he offers a guide to the debacle and to what the future may hold. This is not so much a book about who did what, though that's part of the story. Rather, it pieces together the building blocks of the debt-fueled economy, and distills the theory and personalities behind our late, lamented easy money culture. Dumb Money is a book that finally lays it all out in an engaging way, and might just help people invest their money smartly until the gloom passes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report, published by the U.S. Government and the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in early 2011, is the official government report on the United States financial collapse and the review of major financial institutions that bankrupted and failed, or would have without help from the government. The commission and the report were implemented after Congress passed an act in 2009 to review and prevent fraudulent activity. The report details, among other things, the periods before, during, and after the crisis, what led up to it, and analyses of subprime mortgage lending, credit expansion and banking policies, the collapse of companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the federal bailouts of Lehman and AIG. It also discusses the aftermath of the fallout and our current state. This report should be of interest to anyone concerned about the financial situation in the U.S. and around the world.THE FINANCIAL CRISIS INQUIRY COMMISSION is an independent, bi-partisan, government-appointed panel of 10 people that was created to "examine the causes, domestic and global, of the current financial and economic crisis in the United States." It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker. He has been reporting on economic crises since the 1980's when he was with ABC News. His film In Debt We Trust warned of the economic meltdown in 2006. He has since written three books on the subject including Plunder: Investigating Our Economic Calamity (Cosimo Books, 2008), and The Crime Of Our Time: Why Wall Street Is Not Too Big to Jail (Disinfo Books, 2011), a companion to his latest film Plunder The Crime Of Our Time.

Download or read book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Giving Back written by Elizabeth Ziemba and published by Alpha Books. This book was released on 2009 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Giving Back, readers learn to donate wisely by learning how not-for-profits work and donations are utilized, and the best ways to match their personal ideals, values, and giving goals with a group or cause that's meaningful for them. The book covers- The not-for-profit landscape-how to read an annual report, decipher tax forms, and the issue of paying for overhead. Deciding what matters to you and translating your priorities into giving back. Giving back later-charitable bequests and charitable trusts. Handling telephone solicitations and detecting scams. What to do if you've been the victim of 'charity fraud'. New trends in giving-philanthropreneurship, giving with a willingness to tackle social problems, and addressing the unintended negative consequences of well-intended actions that cause problems for not-for-profits and the people they serve. In 2007, Idol Gives Back,produced by the folks who bring viewers American Idol,brought in more than $75 million in charitable donations; in 2008, the amount raised exceeded that. A June 2008 New York Times article described the way in which individuals-particularly children and teens-were finding that the opportunity to donate $10 mosquito nets to protect African children from malaria was making charity 'cool.' But it's not always easy for people of various ages and backgrounds to make intelligent decisions about donating their time, talents, services, and goods, as well as money and assets, to meet their own giving goals while helping not-for-profit organizations achieve their visions. Add on the concern for avoiding scams and pitfalls and possible unhappy consequences caused by their good intentions, and it's enough for people to keep their donations to themselves.
