It wasn't necessarily the story about the girls that kept me going, but the messages, advice, and tips on understanding and managing your finances. I have known for a while that something was wrong with the way I handle my finances. I thought the problem was simply overspending and buying things I don't need, but I did not understand that it was beyond overspending. Halfway through the book, I started understanding what I wanted the money I earn to do for me. I was inspired enough to actually create a spreadsheet to assess my finances, particularly my spending habits. What I discovered on that spreadsheet shocked me to my bones and was a wake-up call. I'm really glad I bought this book and I am now inspired to take charge of my finances. The book is probably not for everybody, but it sure did speak to me.Key FeaturesAuthor: Arese UgwuPaper coverPublishers: Smart Media AfricaLanguage: English
