In her bestselling book, money dork Sam Beckbessinger tells it to you straight: how to take control of your money to take control of your life.

You’ll learn:

• How to trick your dumb brain into saving more, without giving up fun
• How to make a bona fide grownup budget
• Why you need to forget what you’ve learnt about credit
• How to negotiate a raise
• Why buying a house (probably) won’t make you rich
• The one super-simple investment you need
• How to deal with ‘black tax’

With exercises, flowcharts and informative illustrations (also: kittens), this book is empowering and helpful – and f*cking funny, too.

Back in the long ago times of 2017, I had a podcast with my friend Simon Dingle where we spoke about how to be more productive and happier people. We eventually decided to start a business together so now we don't need to talk via the medium of podcasting, because I see his dumb face all day anyway. It's still a pretty good show, though.
