Money Management.

It can be the difference between living free from financial worries or scraping by from paycheck to paycheck. But there are several money management myths floating around that can act as roadblocks on your way to financial security.

Fear not, however, because we’re here to guide you through these myths and help establish a financial plan that’s right for you.

5 Myths of Money Management

 

1.) Always use rewards credit cards for big purchases

This can potentially be a dangerous line of thinking. While these types of credit cards often have fantastic rewards, they also usually have higher interest rates. So while it may seem enticing to get the boatload of airline miles that would come with a $5,000 purchase, it could cost you a lot more money in the long run if you won’t be able to pay your balance in full at the end of the month.

Stick with low interest credit cards for bigger purchases that you plan to finance. They d

Consumers who compare credit card offers have long complained about the overly complicated language used by lenders in disclosure agreements.

However, these consumers may be getting some help from the government, as politicians are increasingly calling for simpler language on credit card applications.

On Thursday, Elizabeth Warren, the newly appointed head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, voiced her concern over the language used by lenders.

Warren voiced a disdain for the many lawmakers trying to overturn the legislation, the news source says. Read more…

The thousands of private diplomatic cables that were released reveal foreign policy strategies, military secrets, embarrassingly candid opinions of global leaders and more.

Some the leaks that made the biggest splash were requests from the State Department that diplomats should collect information from their foreign counterparts. They “show Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her predecessor Condoleezza Rice asking diplomats to collect data ranging from Internet passwords to DNA and iris scans,” according to USA Today. They also were encouraged to collect credit card numbers, frequent flier numbers, work schedules and fingerprints.

Critics say this borders on asking diplomats to be spies. Aaron David Miller of the Woodrow Wilson International Center Center for Scholars told USA Today, “Of what possible utility is a credit card number?
