"Talking about money sucks-but so does being broke Do your eyes glaze over just thinking about the mumbo-jumbo language of finance? Do you break out into hives when faced with getting your financial life together? Well, sister, you are not alone. The thought of getting your money matters in order sucks. But guess what: so does being broke. In RICH BITCH, money expert and financial journalist Nicole Lapin lays out a 12-Step Plan in which she shares her experiences-mistakes and all-of getting her own finances in order. She talks to you not like a lecturer but as your friend. And even though money is typically an "off-limits" conversation, nothing is off-limits here. Lapin rethinks every piece of financial "wisdom" you've ever heard and puts her own fresh, modern, sassy spin on it. Sure, there are some hard-and-fast rules about finance, but when it comes to your money, the only person who can tell you how to spend it is you. Do you really need a 401(k)? Maybe not. Should you splurge on that morning latte? Likely yes. Instead of focusing on nickel-and-diming yourself on the little things, Nicole's advice is aspirational. She wants you to be your best self and live a Rich Bitch lifestyle-one that is in control and confident enough to join the conversation. After all, money is a language like anything else, and the sooner you can speak the language of money, the sooner you can live the life you want. Being a Rich Bitch isn't only about money-it's so much more than that. Nicole teaches you how to lead a rich, fulfilling life full of stimulation, adventure and (gasp!) even fun. But ... you're gonna need money for that"-- Provided by publisher.
