Nancy Dunnan's 'Recession Proof Your Financial Life'
TravelSmart publisher Nancy Dunnan's latest book "Recession Proof Your Financial Life" is now available.

Dunnan is the author and co-author of over 30 books, including the best seller "How To Invest $50 To $5,000" and other personal finance titles.

She also writes the weekly "Dunnan on Dollars" column for The Online Investor www.theonlineinvestor.com as well as the weekly "Ask Nancy" column for brokerage firm BuyandHold.com.

"Recession Proof Your Financial Life" addresses the topics we're all concerned about -- how to handle a layoff, find a job, get out of debt, save for college, avoid foreclosure, repair your 401(k) and more.

In Dunnan's chapter "It's Chic to be Cheap" she gives great tips for having fun on a budget -- including when traveling. And, in the chapter, "Helping Those of a Certain Age," she covers the best deals, including travel deals, for the 50+ crowd.

If you purchase a copy of the book, for yourself or for a friend, let Ms. Dunnan know by emailing her at TravelSmartNow@aol.com. She will send you two sample issues of TravelSmart magazine and the special TravelSmart Ballpoint Pen with a Light!

Available online from  Amazon and  Barnes&Noble.
