About the Author

S. J. Claflin-Chalton has a doctorate in Economics from the University of Oklahoma and has been teaching at the University of Wisconsin-Stout for the past 16 years.

The author created and developed "Personal Investing" for the Business College and Continuing Education, to help both non-traditional and college students understand the need for planning their financial futures. The material has been continuously revised based on input from those taking the course. 

Most participants begin the material with no previous knowledge about investing but are amazed at how proficient and confident they become after completing the course.

The author believes that you do not need a college education to learn about investing, it is something that is quickly affecting all working Americans who are now expected to plan their own financial security.

One of the most exciting features of the Internet is the huge amount of financial information available. The author has culled this information to provide you with the best that the Internet offers without subscription fees.
