In the year 2018, to see that an advice book titled "Smart Women Finish Rich" was written by a man can feel like an outdated concept, but author David Bach addresses that issue immediately, stating that his inspiration came from his grandmother, who was a self made millionaire (he also has the Oprah stamp of approval). This book was written 20 years ago and has been updated to reflect today's economy and realistic financial situations. Bach gives readers from different types of financial backgrounds guidelines on how to have a better relationship with money and gain financial independence and security.

Even though the book is marketed towards women, I think everyone could benefit from Bach's tips.

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for a review.

Some valuable information but def outdated (as expected). Not as sexist as I was expecting but there were a few things throughout that sorta rubbed me the wrong way. I’d love to read a finance book that acknowledges privilege rather than the overly positive attitude of anyone can do it

So, the book I had was the Canadian version, but it still had solid advice on how to achieve financial security that I could apply.

I was able to get the updated and revised American version of the book, scanned the barcode and it came up, the Canadian version I starred.

But, I am about to read the American version.

Even as a struggling college student this book has allowed me to spend more appropriately. I recently lost my job, and I have had enough money to sustain myself as we'll as go on the vacation I had been planning for a year. This book is a true eye opener!

I could've done without the pep talk sections and some of the condescension, but overall its a worthwhile read, especially if you read the 2018 version which goes into some of 2018 tax changes.
