En as-tu besoin? En as-tu vraiment besoin? Dans cet ouvrage capital où le chroniqueur affaires et économie de Paul Arcand…
passe dans son tordeur une quarantaine de sujets avec perspicacité et humour, cette question toute simple invite à revoir toutes les décisions qui ont un effet direct sur notre compte de banque. Au Québec, l'analphabétisme financier et la consommation à outrance influent négativement sur l'existence de chacun. Pour aider à voir les choses d'un oeil neuf, En as-tu vraiment besoin? place un miroir réaliste devant nos choix de vie et leurs conséquences. L'auteur y remet en question notre façon de dépenser et insiste sur la nécessité de se construire une marge de manoeuvre financière. Cette lecture ne laissera personne indifférent. Pierre-Yves McSween parle d'argent sans filtre et sans tabou, comme on ne l'a jamais fait auparavant dans un livre sur le sujet. Il propose de brillants mécanismes d'autodéfense contre la société de consommation et la naïveté financière. Avec deux grands objectifs en tête: définir le comportement d'un citoyen responsable financièrement; puis, donner au lecteur, enfin, un peu plus de cette liberté dont il a vraiment, tellement, carrément besoin. 2016.By Stacey Roderick, Ellen Warwick. 2008

your age, salary, social or relationship status, money is an important part of your life. Yet, somehow, talking about your money situation is hard. Why is it that you know more about what goes on in your friend’s bedroom than with their bank account? Do you know if your parents have a will or or if they’ll leave a legacy? How many of your colleagues are still paying off student debt but are jet-setting around the globe on multiple credit cards? Since no one is talking about it, you can’t be expected to learn how to manage your money on your own. With years of experience as a personal finance advisor and educator, Kelley Keehn will answer your most burning questions about money and will talk you through how to avoid mistakes along the way. You can gain control of your debt, learn to save for your future, have a life, and feel good about money all at the same time. And—spoiler alert—you don’t need a budget to do any of this! You’ll learn: -How to build good credit (and get rid of bad credit—especially credit card debt) -What all these dreaded acronyms mean and how they can work for you—TFSA, RRSP, RESP, CFP, CPP -How and when to invest for your future -How to talk about money with your partner—and everyone else in your life -How to save for a mortgage and then work towards being mortgage-free -How to have fun, splurge once in a while, and still save money With her unique blend of empathy and no-nonsense candor, Kelley takes you through the basics of personal finance with relatable anecdotes that expose the most common money pitfalls—and how to avoid them—so you can make financial decisions that are right for you.By Pierre-Yves McSween, Paul-Antoine Jetté. 2022
