Money Magpie

Money Magpie

MoneyMagpie, a website about money and life, was launched in early 2007 by British author, financial journalist and television presenter Jasmine Birtles. The site has simple information on topics including:

* Debt - how to keep afloat, get out of debt, or avoid getting into it in the first place.
* Property - how to buy, finance or save money on household insurance.
* Money - how to manage it, make a little bit extra or make a lot.
* Families - how to cope with them, plan for them and "reject everything your parents ever taught you about money".
* Green living - ways to do your bit for the planet inexpensively.

Other topics include 'being a business', 'don't get ripped off', 'saving and investing', 'couples and kids', 'pensions and retirement', 'tax' and 'insurance'.

On the site Jasmine encourages people to learn more about money to take control of their finances and life. This reflects the tone of her books "A Girl's Best Friend is Her Money", "The Money Book: Control Your Money, Control Your Life" and best-seller "A Bit on the Side: 500 ways to Boost Your Income". Where relevant she explains technical jargon and suggests practical ways to make changes in readers' lives.

MoneyMagpie has a free monthly newsletter and free seven step guides on:

* How to be rich without really trying
* How to set up your own business
* How to get out of debt
* How to invest for the future.

Users can also hear podcasts on:

* What you should know before you buy abroad
* How not to go bankrupt
* The big question you have to ask before you get married
* The cheapest way to pay off your debts
* How to buy a house if you don't have any money
* How to get money for free
* Help! I'm pregnant
* Do you really want to retire abroad?
* Selling your home on the internet
