Financial Feminist- Overcome the Patriarchy's Bullsh* t to Master Your Money and Build a Life You Love by Tori Dunlap

Sorry, this item is currently unavailable.

From the globally-recognized personal finance educator and social media star behind Her First 100K, an inclusive guide to all things money- from managing debt to investing and voting with your dollars Tori Dunlap was always good with money. As a kid, she watched her prudent parents balance their checkbook every month and learned to save for musical tickets by gathering pennies in an Altoids tin. But she quickly discovered that her experience with money was pretty unusual, especially among her female friends. It wasn't our fault. Investigating this financial literacy and wealth gap, Tori found that girls are significantly less likely to receive a holistic financial education, we're taught to restrain our spending, while boys are taught about investing and rewarded for pursuing wealth. In adulthood, women are hounded by the unfounded stereotype of the frivolous spenders whose lattes are to blame for the wealth gap. And when something like, say, a global pandemic happens, we're the first to have jobs cut and the last to re-enter the workforce. It's no wonder money is a source of anxiety and a barrier to equality for so many of us.But what if money didn't mean restriction, and instead, choice. The ability to luxuriously travel, quit toxic jobs, donate to important organizations, retire early. The freedom to live the life you want, and change the world while you do it.

The personal finance class I never took

I never did make it to a personal finance class in high school or college, so I got this instead to start getting a handle on my own finances. I’m so so glad I did. It’s concise, actionable, and sensitive to the emotions and socio-political systems surrounding money. It’s been my jumping off point to get curious about building wealth and setting myself up. 10/10 would recommend to anyone but esp to older teens/young 20s people. I feel like we never got this education in school but it’s super important.

10/10- educational but enjoying to read

I love Tori! I listen to her podcast and reading the book i fee like I’m reading my friends book. It is an amazing book giving actual helpful financial advice. She actually gives a game plan not a broad idea of how to save or pay off debt. And the book actually makes you laugh and is the furthest thing from judge mental.couldn’t recommend more!

This book should be required reading!

This is the personal finance book everyone needs -- one that is written for modern day, isn't condescending, acknowledges systemic advantages/disadvantages, and genuinely leaves the reader feeling empowered and ready to take the next steps on their financial journey. As someone who was raised on Dave Ramsey's financial advice and always felt guilt and shamed for things like using a credit card or having student loan debt, reading Financial Feminist was like taking a breath of fresh air. Can't wait to share this with my book club!

Give this to every woman in your life!

I’ve read enough personal finance books and blogs to understand the basics — but this book is something even more than that. It’s a rallying cry to all women to change not only their own finances, but to stand for others as well. Beside the pages on investing, budgeting, spending, and saving there are real stories and challenging anecdotes from other writers and personal finance heavy weights, all who bring unique perspectives and backgrounds to the table. This book doesn’t shy away from the realities of the system we occupy, and encourages women to empower themselves and build a better financial life. I’m buying copies for everyone I know.

Finance + Feminism? Yes please!

This is the book that the younger me needed. Full of valuable and actionable items (that they didn't teach you in school), Tori makes finance relatable and actually learnable.
