    About this audiobook

    Now updated: the classic guide that teaches women how to take control of their own finances

    When this groundbreaking yet compassionate book was first published, it lifted a veil on women's resistance to managing their money, revealing that many were still waiting for a prince to rescue them financially. In this revised edition, which reflects our present-day economic world, Barbara Stanny inspires listeners to take charge of their money and their lives. Filled with real-life success stories and practical advice-from tips on identifying the factors that keep women fearful and dependent to steps for overcoming them-this book is the next best thing to having one's own financial coach.

      Wow, this was an eye-opener for me. I pulled this book off the library shelf because I liked the title, read it and then bought it. This is a marvelous book about one woman's trials with money (having tons she ignored and then lost to a husband that was doing foolish things with it). Through her own journey to get smart about money on many levels, she examines the reasons, both personal and social, that she had a mental block around dealing with the financial aspects of life. She noticed that most women seem to have a similar blindspot and this book encourages every woman to truly get smart about our financial system. Leaving it up to "the man" only makes women vulnerable (and often irresponsible) when there is no need to be.
