Ask Asta

Debra co-anchored CNNfn’s hour-long live television financial call-in show with Stuart Varney & John Metaxas from 1998-2000, and has been widely quoted in: The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, USA Today, MORE Magazine, Journal of Financial Planning, Garden State Woman Magazine, The Ladies Home Journal, Money, Family Money, America Online’s Moneywise, Reader’s Digest, and elsewhere.

She is listed in Marquis’ Who’s Who in Finance and Industry & Who’s Who of American Women, as well as Nationwide Register’s Who’s Who in Executives and Business.

A fee-only wealth manager for Empowered Retirement, Inc., Debra has 40+ years’ experience in personal financial planning and asset management. Additionally, in 2008 she was a member Mark Victor Hansen’s MEGA Inner Circle and Robert G. Allen’s Enlightened Wealth Institute where she joined with other entrepreneurs to Create Enlightened Wealth for Enlightened Futures worldwide, working to make a difference in eradicating illiteracy and contributing to micro-financing for the world’s working poor.

Clearly, Debra and Asta can’t dispense personalized financial advice on this site–for that, you would want to make an appointment. Yet you can learn a LOT by asking your question(s) of an independent Certified Financial Planner™ versus someone peddling commissionable products.
