I WROTE THE GUIDE I WISH I’D HAD WHEN I WAS YOUNGER. NOW IT’S YOURS, PACKED WITH REAL STORIES, SIMPLE TOOLS, AND STEPS TO HELP YOU BUILD A SOLID FINANCIAL FUTURE.
Money Lessons You Should Have Learned But Probably Didn’t
Too many of us enter adulthood without a roadmap for money. No one sat us down to explain credit, debt, budgeting, or how to build wealth. Instead we learn the hard way through late fees, overdrafts, or loans that take years to repay.
​
The Money Skills Guide for Those Without Good Money Role Models was written to change that. Whether you’re a young adult just starting out, or someone who sees yourself in the title and wants a reset, this book gives you the foundation you need to confidently manage, grow, and protect your money.
But Honestly,
It’s For More Than Just Young Adults
Sure, this book was designed with young adults in mind, but the skills inside are timeless.
