The latest from Tim Munkeby

Meet Heidi

January 19, 2015/ Kelsey Lynn

I’ll introduce you to a new character each week for a while starting with MP, who will be like me because the only way to make my biological father, Mac McGenty, whom I never met, real was to create a character.

Meet Lottie

January 05, 2015/ Kelsey Lynn

I’ll introduce you to a new character each week for a while starting with MP, who will be like me because the only way to make my biological father, Mac McGenty, whom I never met, real was to create a character. Kate AKA Marilyn and Sara are based on how I’d guess my two (half) sisters (Mc Genty’s) might be.

Meet MP (aka Mikael, M. Mick)

December 15, 2014/ Kelsey Lynn

I just got word that my pub. date is moved back to March, 2015. Man they’re slow. I also just got an email from one of my favorite writers saying she is giving up writing fiction because she can’t make a living at it. Ain’t right. Guess it’s a tough business.

Where it all Started...

December 08, 2014/ Kelsey Lynn

One long take to explain why I sit at a desk always looking out at water, no matter where I am, scribbling away: as a kid, primarily playing sports year around, I hid from my jock friends that I didn’t watch tv but, instead, read books.

A Million Dollars...

December 01, 2014/ Kelsey Lynn

The Millenials, age 15- 24, are predicted to be worse off, financially, than any previous generation: lowest life-time earnings, relatively, and few benefits from employers (if they can get hired).

Back to the Island

November 25, 2014/ Kelsey Lynn

Pub. date for Back to the Island is scheduled for Jan. 31st, 2015. Since authors have to market their own books, each week before that I'll write some teasers here to lure you into buying the book.

The Mutual Fund

June 01, 2010/ Kelsey Lynn

Very few people have the time, training, or discipline to research investments such as stocks or real estate. That is why the mutual fun was invented. If you let professionals make the buying and selling decisions with a fund you're able to purchase shares in hundreds of companies for as little as $25 a month.

What is the best investment vehicle for you to use

May 24, 2010/ Kelsey Lynn

TAKE: Always keep a cash reserve, but for intermediate to long-term investing, use a Roth IRA. It grows tax-FREE and has liquidity… it is by far the best vehicle for you to use.

Tim is just back from a trip to the Cayman Islands

May 19, 2010/ Kelsey Lynn

Would you rather have $1 million or a penny that doubled in value each day for a month?

TAKE: The million dollars you think? Well, in a 30 day month that penny would be worth $10,737,418; a 31-day month: $21,474,836. Surprised? This shows the power of "compound interest."

Tim Munkeby

Timothy P. Munkeby is an author and speaker on financial and career literacy living in Minnesota. Look for his books Back to the Island and If I Had a Million Dollars.

tim-munkeby.jpg

I write to consider how we all might best shuffle through the world's waltz without stepping on each others' toes. Of course, I must also entertain or all is for naught. Poking at the systems that create injustices, my stories hopefully connect with emerging generations or, also hopefully, anyone who believes they can still make a difference.
