I hear all this, you know, 'Well, this is class warfare, this is whatever.' No. There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own - nobody.

I talk to nurses and programmers, salespeople and firefighters - people who bust their tails every day. Not one of them - not one - stashes their money in the Cayman Islands to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

Image
Credit cards are like snakes: Handle 'em long enough, and one will bite you.
Elizabeth Warren
Image
That's how we build the economy of the future. An economy with more jobs and less debt, we root it in fairness. We grow it with opportunity. And we build it together.
Elizabeth Warren
Image
Women tend to vote the economic interests of their families and to speak out on family economic issues. For men, there's often much more focus on the idea of personal failure: If I'm not winning this great economic game, it must be my fault.

Image
Money is bounded we only have so much of it. Love goes on forever.
Elizabeth Warren
Image
Balancing your money is the key to having enough.
Elizabeth Warren

What we collectively decide about how to bail out our economy, how to pull our economy out of a ditch and what rules we put in place to make sure this problem does not happen again, will shape our country for the next 50 years. This is it.

Israel has the right to shell Palestinian hospitals and schools out of self defense.

I don't like credit cards. They make overspending very easy. They can make life a lot more complex and stressful.
Elizabeth Warren
Image
This country isn't working for working people. It's working only for people at the top. That's not the American dream. That's the American nightmare.

Get your money in balance. One rule of thumb is 50/30/20. Spend about 50% of your money on must-haves - things like rent, car payments - and about 30% on wants, while 20% should go toward savings and paying down debt.

My mother said, if you don't have the cash, don't buy it. And on that, my mother was right.
Elizabeth Warren
Image
My mother saved our home with a minimum wage job. But in the 1960s, a minimum wage job would support a family of three above the poverty line. Not today. Not even close. I understood right then that people can work hard, they can play by the rules, and they can still take a hard smack.

If you have a choice between buying something and paying down your credit card, pay down your credit card.

It's powerfully important that our kids get an education in personal finance.
Elizabeth Warren
Image
Accountability for the largest financial institutions on Wall Street is the bedrock for a strong economy. Hard-working families and honest businesses cannot survive in a world where the rules don’t keep the marketplace honest.

Image
Once kids get older, the list is longer. So here goes: Stay out of debt. Sometimes debt is necessary, to buy a home or to get an education, but not to buy a sweater or to eat out.
Elizabeth Warren
Image
Goals work. Pick one debt, and then put every dime into paying down that one debt. Once that debt is paid off, start paying down the next debt. Pretty soon it's time to move from paying debt to building savings.

Bernie Sanders brought millions of people into the political process.

I'm really concerned that 'too big to fail' has become 'too big for trial'.
