SUGGESTED ANCHOR LEAD-IN

2009 WAS A CHALLENGING YEAR FOR OUR FINANCES.  HOW CAN WE DO BETTER IN 2010? 

ANNOUNCER:

A new survey from Chase reveals that seven in 10 CONSUMERS trust themselves most to manage their own budget, Yet more than half still do not feel they’re in complete control of their finances.  In fact, one in 10 who made New Year’s resolutions to better manage their finances in 2010 admitted to breaking them within the first 10 days of the year.  DR. HERSH SHEFRIN, A LEADING FIGURE IN THE FIELD OF BEHAVIORAL FINANCE, SAYS THE KEY TO BETTER MANAGING YOUR FINANCES IS TO DO A LITTLE RESEARCH AND NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP. 

DR. HERSH SHEFRIN:

“Anyone can set financial goals and stick to them; it’s only a matter of finding the right tools to fit your needs. For example, Chase developed a set of free features called Blueprint^SM that lets consumers design their own plan to pay off balances sooner, save money by avoiding interest charges, and track their progress directly on their monthly statements.”
