About this title

Synopsis

A Wallet In The Sock (WITS) will help you keep your wits about you! Steven M. Sheldon takes a personal anecdote involving his dad's unorthodox vacation planning techniques and turns it into a powerful, new metaphor for achieving financial security and peace of mind. With over 20 years of experience including his early career days in banking and a stint at Enron that coincided with the company’s spectacular rise and fall, Mr. Sheldon uses his own personal and professional background to offer a real-life look at being prepared financially for life's uncertainties. In addition, he addresses the daunting challenges of saving for college and retirement by offering some practical and effective planning strategies. As the founding principal of SMS Capital Management, Mr. Sheldon now helps those who have enough resources to accomplish their personal financial goals, but not enough to make costly mistakes along the way.
