The moment I dove into I Will Teach You to Be Rich by Ramit Sethi ($15), I knew my life would change for the better. The book is filled with practical wisdom and detailed scripts to say, get your bank to waive credit card fees or stay disciplined with your budget. I took notes as I read, and within a few months, I paid off my credit card and set up an emergency fund.
I’ve always found books to be the most effective tools for learning. They move at your own pace, motivating you to take steps when you’re ready. April is Financial Literacy Month, but in my book (see what I did there?), every month is a good opportunity to take charge of your finances. If you’re ready to learn about budgeting, saving, investing, tax deductions. . . you name it — pick up the life-changing reads I curated ahead.
