"I'm excited about this opportunity to connect with the sophisticated -- and novice -- investors who come to MoneyShow.com for information and advice on investing and personal finance. After all, once you learn how to make money in the markets, it becomes equally important to know how to plan for retirement, or to reach other financial goals," said Savage.

Her syndicated personal finance column for the Chicago Sun-Times is read in newspapers across the country, and her columns appear regularly on TheStreet.com.

Her previous best seller, The Savage Truth on Money, was named one of the ten best money books of the year on Amazon.com and was made into an hour-long television special, which aired on PBS.

"Terry's vast experience as a trader, award-winning commentator, and author of several books on investing and personal finance gives her a unique perspective from which MoneyShow.com members can surely benefit," said Howard Gold, executive editor of MoneyShow.com.

Savage is a frequent guest on national television programs such as CNN and PBS commenting on the markets and personal finances. She also is heard on national radio programs, including Bob Brinker and Jim Bohannon's syndicated shows. In addition, she's appeared on Oprah many times.

Terry Savage's expertise comes from experience. She began her career as a stockbroker and became a founding member -- and the first woman trader -- on the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
