Eric Tyson Biography

The best-selling author of five books, including Personal Finance for Dummies and Investing for Dummies, Eric Tyson is one of the country’s foremost personal finance experts. After years of working with Fortune 500 companies, he opened the nation’s first financial counseling firm, which works exclusively on an hourly basis, providing objective, cost-effective financial advice.

Using common sense and high standards, Tyson dissects the problematic complexities of personal finance and creates practical solutions to help people spend less, plan better and invest smarter. He explores the benefits of stocks for long-term investments and the detriments of using them to make quick money. Pointing out that it is never too early to invest in a retirement plan, Tyson shows prospective investors which option is right for them. In addition to pointing out the beneficial investment choices open to people today, Tyson exposes misleading “get-rich-quick” schemes aimed to lure unsuspecting investors away from better options.

In addition to his work as a counselor and journalist, Tyson is the country’s #1 best-selling personal finance author and has penned five national bestsellers, including Personal Finance for Dummies, Investing for Dummies, Mutual Funds for Dummies, Home Buying for Dummies and Taxes for Dummies. Personal Finance for Dummies was recently awarded the Benjamin Franklin award for Best Business Book of the Year.

Tyson is also a syndicated columnist and award-winning journalist. His syndicated newspaper column, “Investor’s Guide,” is read by more than 4 million people nationwide. He conceived of, wrote and performed the video clips for the “Finance 101” portion of Quicken, the #1 best-selling personal finance software in the world.

His work has been featured and quoted in hundreds of local and national publications and media outlets including Newsweek, The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Tribune, Forbes, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine, Money, Worth, Parenting and USA Today. Tyson has appeared on NBC’s The Today Show, ABC, CNBC, PBS Nightly Business Report, CNN, CBS national radio, NPR’s Sound Money and Bloomberg Business Radio. He has also been a featured speaker at a White House conference on retirement planning.

Tyson taught the nation’s most highly attended personal financial management course at the University of California, Berkeley. He has also spoken at Levi-Strauss, Glaxo-Wellcome, Technology Assessment Group, the College of Notre Dame, Stanford University, San Francisco State University and the University of California at San Francisco.

Eric Tyson earned his bachelor’s degree in economics at Yale and an MBA at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. He is married and the proud father of three sons.
