Get Good with Money: Ten Simple Steps to Becoming Financially Whole by Tiffany Aliche

5.0

I would give this book 10 + stars if I could!

This is the best financial book I have ever read. This book is so thorough and organized. It is divided into percentages that equal up to being “100% financially whole.” Each of the sections goes into great detail about important topics such as “how to pay off your student loans,” “how to build up your net worth,” and “how to start investing effectively.” As a 21-year-old, reading this book has helped me feel like I am setting up my future right. I now have a useful framework for making smart choices with my money. Tiffany Aliche is hilarious and the book feels like conversing with an older sister who is helping me learn from her past mistakes while teaching me some valuable money lessons along the way. Her advice is simple to understand, yet so powerful. There are also worksheets in the back of the book that you can easily fill out to strengthen your financial literacy and understanding. My favorite concepts from the book were how to create a Noodle Budget (game-changer!), seeing your credit score as your Grade Point Average (GPA), a simple calculation to determine how to retire early, and practicing mindful budgeting and spending habits. Thank you Tiffany Aliche!

And thank you NetGallery and Rodale.Inc for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
