Make Money, Not Excuses

Více o knize

Many women often feel overwhelmed by finances, using excuses like lack of time, intimidation, or believing they aren’t good with money. Jean Chatzky, who once shared these sentiments, reveals her own financial missteps—such as neglecting bills and accruing credit card debt—before taking control of her financial future. This guide is for anyone ready to manage their money effectively, offering insights on where to begin, how to understand financial jargon, and overcoming feelings of inadequacy regarding money management. Chatzky emphasizes that striving to be a "good-enough investor" can yield better long-term results than aiming for perfection. She also explains why women often outperform men in investing. With her clear and accessible approach, she demystifies complex financial topics, making them approachable and even enjoyable. Throughout the book, readers will find a “Map to a Million,” providing practical tips for immediate financial improvements. To achieve wealth, Chatzky outlines four essential steps: earn a decent income, spend less than you earn, invest wisely, and protect your financial foundation from potential disasters. These core principles are crucial for building a secure financial future, allowing you to focus on what truly matters in life.
