Hi,

Michelle Singletary is the nationally syndicated columnist for the Washington Post. Her award-winning column, The Color of Money, appears twice a week in newspapers across America. Plus, her online financial programs reach millions of people around the world.

She’s a frequent contributor to CNN’s New Day, CNN Newsroom, and The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer. She has also been the host of a PBS Special and a nationally syndicated TV show on TV One.

In addition to her professional work, she directs the Prosperity Partners Ministry, a financial education program, at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden in Maryland.

Michelle’s newest best seller book is What To Do with Your Money When Crisis Hits.

In this powerful interview for my Sirius XM radio show, Michelle Singletary shares the finance principles she learned from her grandmother and she has taught to millions of others to help them create wealth:

1. Regardless of your profession, there are areas where you can improve your financial education.
   
   
2. It’s not a matter of “if there will be a crisis," but "when there will be a new crisis."
   
   
3. Manage your finances as if you are in a “perpetual” recession.
   
   
4. The best tool to help you create an effective budget is the one that works best for you, and that includes a pen and paper.
   
   
5. A good budget works best when your brain is involved and action is taken! You must decide that it’s important to do it, and then do it now.
   
   
6. The formula for making good financial decisions:
   
   a. Is this a need or a want?
   b. Can I afford it without taking on more debt?
   c. Seek good counsel from wise mentors
   d. Always “run the numbers" before you make that financial call
   
   
7. Have different pots for your money.
   
   a. Emergency Fund (at least 3 months of household expenses in case you have a serious emergency)
   
   b. Life Happens Fund i.e. air conditioning or heater breaks down, car repair bill (a flat tire should not create a crisis moment)
   
   c. Retirement Fund
   
   d. College Fund
   
   
8. Make sure every penny has a purpose.
   
   
9. Encourage kids to move home and save for a house! Home ownership is a financial game changer.
   
   
10. Create a plan for accomplishing your dream
