Book Reviews of Nice Girls Don't Get Rich: 75 Avoidable Mistakes Women Make with Money
Book Review: A "Must-Read" for Women
Summary: 5 Stars
Women: you need to read this book!!! I have read numerous personal finance books (including those geared towards women), but this book covers so much more. Even though I think I am smart with money, I was able to find some areas where I need improvement. There are many mistakes women commonly make with money and this book describes 75 of them.
A few of the topics include:
Learning about money
Budgeting
Spending habits that work against you
Trusting the wrong people
Not leveraging company contributions & perks
Working at a salary less than what you deserve
Not having investments in your name
Loaning money away
Not getting what you should in divorce
The book is just full of great advice. It's easy to read and you can skip around if you only want to read the topics that apply to you. I took a lot of notes about how to do things differently and resources I can use. As a result, I am now investing monthly in mutual funds and I consciously think about the purchases I make (am I buying to get that "shopping high" or am I buying because I need it?).
This is a terrific book for all women, from housewives to young women starting their first job to executives. We can all learn something from this book - and it's a very important topic!
