For my family
I have the great fortune of knowing encouraging and inspiring individuals whove made my career and life an absolute joy, in addition to having helped spring my ideas and this book to life.
Thank you to my superb agent, Adam Kirschner, who pushed for this project, just as I was about to give up hope. Thank you to the very supportive and talented Pearson team: Jeanne Glasser, Tim Moore, and Julie Phifer. Thank you all for rallying behind me and reminding me to always think big. Boom!
This book could not have been possible without the generosity and brilliance of behavioral experts, teachers, and economists who shared with me their perspectives, theories, and thoughts. Thank you especially to the great Dan Ariely, Jay Ritter, Terri Ciochetti, and Joseph Brusuelas.
I am enormously grateful to the television producers who have allowed me to share my perspectives on their airwaves. First and foremost, Patricia Luchsinger, a magnificent producer at the NBC Today Show, who was the first person to take a serious chance on me and put me on live, national TV at a young age. Thanks for the big break and for inviting me back. Thank you to the excellent Katherine Billman, also from the Today Show. Thank you to all the brave and inspiring participants on Bank of Mom & Dad. And of course, monstrous thanks to my Bank of Mom & Dad family at ABC Daytime and BBC America who helped bring this very important program to life: Ann Miller, Lillian Lim, Marianne Fleschman, Allison Wallach, Bob Kirsh, Shirley Escott, Jerry Kolber, and Tracey Finley.
My deepest gratitude to all the individuals with whom Ive had the opportunity to collaborate in the past year, whove helped me extend my reach in educating everyday people about money. Im especially thankful for Christine Schirmer, Jen Garcia, Jen Fellner, Scott Gulbransen, Chelsea Marti, Kathryn Zambito, Courtney Leddy, Chris Lee, Kathleen McGraw, Katie Grafer, Denise Vitola, Kristen Ronan, Colleen McCarthy, and Naomi Borno.
I have wonderful friends who keep me brave: Kate Dailey, Bethany and Tim McGee, Ariel Gornizky, Kathryn Ricker, Tim Chan, Kafi Drexel, Margie Fox, Brian Maloney, David Dapko, Annika, Michael, Luke, and Blake OLooney, Susan, Michael, Allison, and Amanda Beacham, Kathy Braddock, Kelly and Eric Tiedeken, Christine and Mike Rzasa, Tim Hedden, Kristin Bentz, Susie Banikarim, and Dan Arnall. Thanks to all of you for your unconditional friendship and support.
Thank you to Dean Jim Thomas and Joyce Matthews and the entire Smeal College of Business at Pennsylvania State University, my alma mater.
A great thank you to my Lancaster, PA family for their love and support: Eileen and Phil Jaquith; Kate Dussinger; and Doug, Jean, and Bradley Dussinger.
Speaking of family, much love and a great big thank you to Aunt Sheren, Uncle Nasser, and my AZ cousins Alex and Allen.
Thank you to Adam and Sheila Torabi, my amazing parentsto whom I owe pretty much my entire life. The greatest gift they ever gave mebesides guidance, unconditional love, and trustwas my brother Todd back in 1991. With Todd, there is inspiration and joy. And the future always seems brighter.
Finally, I am blessed for my best friend and steady Tim Dussinger. Thank you for all the all.

The arrival of this book and its message, I suspect, could not have been better timed. Were more than two years into this great recession, and many of us are more confused than ever about our personal finances. With the financial and employment landscapes evolving before us, its difficult to return to the old, prescriptive advice weve grown accustomed to. Emotionally, weve got a lot going on; were angry, hurt, confused, and weve lost confidence. Our emotions have (and continue to) run high. By now we recognize that we need to change our ways, but not in a knee-jerk, reactionary way. After all, economic volatility is cyclical and will likely return in a new form in the near future. Whats needed is advice that doesnt just stem from the rules and regulations of the banking, credit, and financial world but is rooted in our behavior and habits. We need to understand ourselves, get honest, and make money one of the most personal issues and biggest priorities of our lives. If we can get a tighter hold on our minds, our actions, and our belief systems, we can be in control of anything, most importantly our financial lives.
