Within this book, you will also find real-life, relevant tips, tricks, and advice about financial management geared towards helping you understand that learned behavior (i.e., my parents did it this way, so that’s why I do it this way) isn’t always correct.

Make today the first day you decide not to be complacent with financial mediocrity! As you already know, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results. This book will give you the knowledge needed to switch it up to get a different outcome and better results.
