Getting Good with Money
Pay Off Your Debt and Find a Life of Freedom---Without Losing Your Mind
About this book
Managing your money and finances can be stressful and can take a toll on your relationships and well-being. But it doesn't have to be that way. Join certified financial coach and mom Jessi Fearon as she helps you get a handle on your finances and lays out the doable steps her family took to pay off all their debts--including their mortgage!--and pursue their dreams, all on a $47,000-a-year salary.
Jessi Fearon vividly remembers the day she broke down, knowing that her family could not pay the bills with a second baby on the way. Like many Americans, they were overwhelmed by debt and living paycheck to paycheck, wondering if it was possible to ever get ahead or even catch up. But on that day, something changed, and she and her husband decided to make a drastic lifestyle change that would put them back on the path toward their dreams.
Their decision not only allowed her to stay home with their children, but in two years, they were able to pay off their consumer debt, and, in six years, they paid off their home mortgage--all on their $47,000-a-year income. And now she shares what she's learned with others who are struggling just like she once did.
With been-there wisdom and step-by-step help, Jessi gives you the tools you need to:
- Take control of your finances with practical first steps to budgeting and understanding debt
- Identify the four different ways we struggle with money and how each one affects the way we manage--or mismanage--our money
- Replace the lies you've been taught about money
- Discover money-saving apps, financial tips, and ideas for generating additional income to pay off debt more quickly
Take it from Jessi: you don't need a finance degree or a six-figure income to build a great life for your family. Getting Good with Money will inspire, encourage, and equip you to achieve financial freedom that lasts.
Praise for Getting Good with Money:
"In the age of consumerism, Jessi brings calm into the chaos of living financially strapped by encouraging and guiding families to discover the beauty of living in financial freedom. No matter the size of your income, Getting Good with Money will lead you toward the stability you crave."
