Recession-Proof Your Life
Fall issue of The Nest magazine dishes on how to perk up your bank
account, your house, and even your social life
NEW YORK (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) August 28, 2008 --
No matter how much (or how little) cash you have, the truth is money is
the number one cause of major marriage meltdowns. So what’s
a couple to do in today’s tough economy? Just
in time, editors from The Nest (www.thenest.com)
share the scoop on how you can save some dough in the latest issue of
their quarterly glossy, The Nest magazine. Tackling money from
all angles, The Nest has advice for revving up not only your bank
account, but also home décor, fall travel
plans, and tips for entertaining on a budget!
In “Recession-Proof Your Life”
(page 114), The Nest offers the seven vital steps for keeping
your cash intact even in an economic downslide. And for an insider look
into the lives of three couples facing off with money disagreements,
check out “Couple Money Makeovers”
(page 108). With the help of Carmen Wong Ulrich, anchor of CNBC’s
On the Money, these couples learn how to not only find a common
ground, but also how changing their spending habits can equal big
savings.

Upgrade your home—without
the move

deal with the current housing market? Not to worry! In “Upgrade
Your Nest” (page 100), style experts at The
Nest offer tips and tricks for kicking the most popular rooms in
your home up a notch—without breaking the
bank (think eco-friendly and oh-so-impressive kitchen flooring plus tips
for turning your bathroom into a mini retreat). And to really help

Recession-resistant travel—Europe minus
the euro
Dying to cross the pond for a romantic European trip for two but afraid
you’ll drown in exchange rates? Editors at The
Nest share the scoop on the top European destinations where your
dollar will soar thanks to the non-euro locales in “Do
Europe Without the Euro!” (page 88). From a
paradise for beach bums who crave a fun night scene (Dubrovnik, Croatia)
to the perfect vacay spot for adventure seekers (Interlaken,
Switzerland), there’s a spot for every taste
and style—all without the money-sucking euro.
If you thought you had to spend a fortune to host your own wine-tasting
party, think again. In “Host a Wine-Tasting
Party” (page 66), newlywed duo Anu and David
from Swirl Events in NYC show you how to toast to an ultra-fun party
without blowing your budget. In fact, all the wines that they suggest
retail for under $22! And for those looking to host the ultimate fall
dinner party, The Nest is here to help with five delish (yet
budget friendly) pasta
dishes that are sure to impress (page 74).
