Is Personal Finance the same as it was 10 years ago?

R B asked:


I have 2 big books on personal finance: the Wall Street Journal Lifetime Book of Finance and Jane Bryant Quinn’s book on it. They’re both from 1998 or earlier. Should I read them or should I invest in a new book?

   The basics don’t change. But financial market conditions (and technology) do.

   They will be fine. The basic advice hasn’t changed.
