Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine

An annual subscription provides so many articles and financial tips that you can use, regardless of your financial situation, that the magazine will pay for itself! Taxes, insurance, investments, retirement, home ownership and major purchases.

I really like to gift an annual subscription for friends who are having trouble getting a handle on their finances. They've come back and thanked me for introducing them to Kiplinger's Personal Finance -- and they've renewed their subscriptions.

Our family uses this magazine and Consumer Reports to help us make all of our major purchases. We've saved money on cars, TVs, washers, dryers, refrigerators and a gas grill.

I received Rolling Stones instead?
This seems to be a repetitive issue with this company.

I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE MAGAZINE YET. WHEN AM I SUPPOSED TO GET IT PLEASE?

I am a 43 year old college educated health professional who reads Money & Smart Money. Kiplinger's is way over my head, more in depth for someone who just has a passing interest in finance and who wants some basic information...

I ordered Kiplinger's and Money magazine for my mom who is nearing retirement age. She's relatively inexperience when it comes to personal finance and retirement planning. She does use an investment adviser, but hasn't seen much growth in her accounts, and is confused by much of what the adviser tells her. My recommendations to her were, first, find a new adviser, and second, to do some reading to educate herself with the basics. With my second suggestion in mind, I signed her up for a year of both Kiplinger's and Money in hopes that she would be able to make more informed decisions when working with her adviser.
It's been about 6 months since the first set of magazines arrived, and she is very happy with both. Interestingly, I've noticed that she quotes articles from Kiplinger's much more often the from Money. I would recommend either Kiplinger's or Money to someone getting in investing, or looking to improve their general knowledge of financial vehicles, investment strategy, and financial goal setting.
