It was Smart Money and Money that went back and looked at how they did. It’s a very fine line. But I found the subject fascinating.
Connections
Married David Conrad Quinn, June10, 1967. In 1997, she was named one of the “100 Most Influential Business Journalists” by The Journalist and Financial Reporter newsletter.
She currently serves as a director on the board of Bloomberg LP. Over the course of her career, she served on the Dean’s Council of the Harvard School of Public Health, the Board of Advisors for the Levy Economics Institute of Bard College, and the Board of Trustees at her alma mater, Middlebury College.
She is a contributing editor for Newsweek, where she wrote a biweekly column for 30 years, retiring it in 2009.
She also writes a bimonthly column for Bloomberg.com.
Her twice-weekly, syndicated Washington Post Writers Group column, “Staying Ahead”, ran for 27 years in over 250 newspapers and is considered one of the most successful newspaper columns.
Background
She was born in Niagara Falls, New York, and graduated magna cum laude from Middlebury College in Vermont, where she was a member of Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women.
Quinn’s book, “Making the Most of Your Money” (Simon & Schuster, 1991), landed on The New York Times best-seller list. And that if you wanted to work, you could. I don’t look particularly look for a particularly person other than Krugman, but I’m trying to read everything about personal finance in the world to see what everybody else is talking about.
Q: In 1992, you told an audience at Fordham that the best personal finance magazine was Kiplinger’s.
I was doing all three – magazines, the newspapers and books – so you had a hard time getting away from me. And then I was working on the school paper, and I just found it interesting, mostly from a writing point of view. A comprehensive guide to personal finance, it was first published in 1991 and has been in print ever since. The most recent edition, Making the Most of Your Money NOW: The Classic Bestseller Completely Revised for the New Economy, was published in 2009.
She is also the author of Smart and Simple Financial Strategies for Busy People, her personal list of the best, low-cost strategies for saving more money, finding good insurance, planning for college tuition, investing for retirement, and other personal financial topics. She wrote her first bestseller, Everyone’s Money Book, in 1978.
An Emmy award winner, Jane worked extensively in television.
If you make bad ones, it’s too bad, you should have known better than to buy that mutual fund. It also depends on the types of outlets you get into. I was put there by default, but if I hadn’t been interested I wouldn’t have stayed there. And one thing followed another. You ask them for explanations, and they are quite patient.
I’m a very slow writer, and I squeeze out the words. It’s so down to earth.
