Last year I found this great book, The Smart Cookies' Guide To Making More Dough. The Smart Cookies formed a money club in 2006, their fiscal know-how was half-baked at best. Not only did they not have savings, most were in debt (unfortunately the case for most women).
How they moved from being inept to experts started when a "debt diet" episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show inspired them to begin a money group. "Kind of like a book club," they write, "but instead of reading and discussing books, we'd be reading our bank statements and discussing ways to pay down our debt and make more money."
A quick, easy read this book is great for getting you off that financial roller-coaster with a little help from your friends. The last chapter is called 'Join The Group' teaching you how to start your own financially chic group.
Need more reasons on why you start your own group? Here you go...
-You'll learn to face your fears about money and to overcome them.
-You'll be more motivated and prepared to fix finances.
-You'll learn more than you every imagined about - managing - and making more - money.
-You'll reach your goals faster.
-You'll have a support system to help you through the rough spots and to celebrate your successes.
-You'll form lasting friendships.
-You'll feel empowered to take control of your finances and your destiny!
Be sure to add The Smart Cookies to your book list and check out their fabulous site.
