Financial Kick starter
A great book to get you thinking about your finances and more knowledge in areas you may not know about. Really triggered me to put more effort in to time spent on the small savings / interest that add up over their full length. She’s a quirky character but talks in local lingo and organisations so it’s relatable.

Relatable and not condescending
Since finding Frances on Tiktok and really enjoying her quick tips I binged a bunch of her podcast episodes. Her conversations with experts are so informative and not overwhelming. The perspective she keeps is always one of someone that doesn’t have a degree in finance or even knowledge of all the terminology without coming across condescending. This book hits all of the same spots! It’s an easy listen and good pace.

Easy to follow, good research and good encourageme
I already knew a lot of this stuff but I don't apply it. The author is gentle on the reader and very encouraging.
