Best Money Books

We all need a handle on our money. It makes the world go round and sadly can make or break our lives. A lot goes into that we were never taught. Not by school or our family. If we’re lucky we wouldn’t have gotten any bad habits or beliefs, but that’s doubtful. So we need to be proactive in learning what we need.

Starting off strong with a smart black woman. Rodgers talks about the ways we all can up out income and save better. But also adds in the inherit problems women and people of color face to getting started. Such an easy read but filled with great research.

Get Rich Lucky Bitch

One of my first books I read about money that actually made sense. Yes it has a little woo woo in it and that makes me happy. But it really goes into the mindset behind what money is and how you hold yourself back. I literally reread this book every year just to get a boost and implement different things.

The Psychology of Money

This worked for me because he wove every lesson into a story. So you got to see how things manifested in the real world and the consequences. That what you do with money is all behavioral with feelings attached. Not that its just a math problem to solve.

How to manage your money when you don’t have any

I took pieces from this book mostly because parts just didn’t have anything to do with me. Not that it was wrong or anything. But it really does a good job going over getting out of living paycheck to paycheck. It gets really down to the hardships of living through a recession and how to survive.

The millionaire Next Door

This book was recommended to me over and over. Now if you are just starting out its a good place to start. It goes over basics which some people really do need.

Bonus: Financial Feminist

I know this has not come out yet but her social media and podcast is full of great information. I hadn’t even started investing yet until she gave me some actual good tips and actual steps to do it. I’ve already pre-ordered her book and can’t wait to dive in.
