Publisher Comments

This book, first published in 1986, provides a comprehensive introduction to corporate finance. By means of numerous examples, it stresses the theoretical formulations that are most useful in making managerial financial decisions. Focusing on the two important concepts of the time value of money and the use of diversification to reduce risk, it presents a comprehensive survey of capital budgeting techniques followed by a discussion of the cost of capital and long-term financing decisions. There is also an exposition of topics related to short-term financial management.

Has anyone tried to get you to some get rich quick type of seminars/institutes/training sessions?
An acquaintance gave me a CD with motivational /basic financial management advice a few months ago and claimed it was a "gift". I put it aside and only recently listened to it. What I liked is that it did motivate me to want to learn more and think more critically how I was spending my money.
The acquaintance recently they told me they attended the "institute's" free workshop (it was advertised in the media) and decided to buy a ticket to their next multi day intensive workshop

My husband is emotionally abusive. He has serious anger management issues and has trouble with the line between normal and mean. So after nearly 10 years of marriage, I'm a bit fed up.
The 10 years we have been together, he has found one reason or another reason to not have a job despite the fact that he was doing quiet well when we met.
Due to anger issues, he got fired and was out of work for over a year while I supported him. His excuse was that there were no bites on his resume.
Thereafter, he had a great job, in which he milked (in my opinion). He then decided to join the Army and give it all up
