Tarcher Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

As someone who is getting into understanding finance, "Broke Millennial" has been an invaluable resource. It breaks down complex concepts into digestible pieces, making it easier for me to grasp important financial principles. I appreciate the practical tips and relatable anecdotes that have helped me gain confidence in managing my money effectively.

It is very well written, easy to read except some mentions I believe about modern life, I did not find in dictionary. I read it slowly as I want to remember main points of the book. Great book!!!

I am a university student and I never learnt about finances prior to coming to uni.My whole world changed especially with the fact that I had to keep up with bills and other payment. Sometimes I would feel bad I couldn't go out with friends cause I didn't spend my money wisely and don't have enough to get through the month.I got this book as a suggestion from a website and it totally changed my outlook on money. I gave super suggestions and I still go back to it, for a refresher on anything. I am going to keep this book for a long time and I advise if your 20s or just trying to figure out finances get this book

Bien

I'll keep these brief, but this book has changed me. A lot. It's given me a desire to make my money work for me. I don't know if that was the intent of the book but how i took it's teachings definitely has helped me out.I got into a lot of credit card debt, i was young and had a fairly good job, and the bank gave me a large limit. Not knowing anything because hey public school does not teach you any life lessons. I blew it. Maxed it and had a lot of debt. Well damn, lets get another and i'll use that one to pay it off. Uh oh, more debt.Honestly it's a viscous cycle. However after years of struggling i managed to pay it off and get a clean slate. But the fear of credit stuck with me. This book has made me realise how you can make credit work for you.I've created budgets and percentages of my income goes off to all different pots, from savings, to my mortgage fund, my investment portfolio and emergency funds.I'm 26 and before i read this book, if i saved up £200 that was impressive. But now i'm on top of my finances and turns out i love it, i like knowing where my money goes and how to make it work for you.Honestly give it a good read, I'm just starting the second book now. Beautifully written too.
