New Publication Provides Expert Guidance on Getting a Good Financial Start
BALTIMORE, July 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- As part of its
long-standing commitment to providing investors with world-class service
and education, T. Rowe Price is now offering a free publication -- "Smart
Financial Living: A Guide to Getting Started" -- to help new and less
experienced investors set out on the path toward reaching their financial
goals.
The easy-to-follow, 24-page guidebook offers investors expert advice,
charts and worksheets to help them define their priorities, assess their
financial situation, determine how much they need to save to reach their
goals, align their saving and investing plans with their aims, and stay on
track.
T. Rowe Price has helped generations of investors get a good financial
start and become much more knowledgeable about financial planning as their
lives and goals evolve. In keeping with that, "Smart Financial Living" can
provide a solid introduction to the basic principles of saving and
investing for such common goals as funding college and retirement and can
help investors create their own financial plans.
"Making good decisions early on about saving and investing could
significantly increase the chances that investors can reach their goals,"
says Stuart Ritter, a Certified Financial Planner at T. Rowe Price, who
helped craft the new guidebook. "The sooner they define their financial
priorities and develop an investing plan, the more confident they'll be
about their future."
One key focus of the guidebook is that it walks new and less
experienced investors through how to take best advantage of time -- by
starting to save early, by using the power of compounding, and by creating
an overall investment plan based on the time horizons of their goals.
"Smart Financial Living" is only the latest in a wide range of
educational resources developed for investors by T. Rowe Price. More guides
and tools are available at "Investing 101," a section of the firm's web
site at http://www.troweprice.com/101 . The free guidebook can be ordered
there, by calling 1-800-528-4509 or by visiting a T. Rowe Price Investor
Center.
