TIP #4 - Read "Your Money or Your Life"

Good morning!

Grab your double-espresso and enjoy.

This is tip #4 of nine tips I’m sharing over the next nine weeks. I hope you find something useful!

I’m a book nerd. I’m a numbers nerd. Put those two together and I read a lot about money.

And while I can recommend a list of books to further your financial curiosity, there’s one that really challenges the status quo of society’s relationship with money.

Your Money or Your Life (by Vicki Robin) is that book.

It is not easy to read how little money you need to live a fulfilling life - and even harder to put those money habits into place - but it’s always good to push yourself in new ways of thinking about money.

This is a great way to kick off your imagination of what’s possible (financially) with your life. And being creative is how you reach financial freedom - it’s not one specific path, it’s the path that works for you.

TIP #4 - Read “Your Money or Your Life” by Vicki Robin.

You don’t have to go to the extremes that the author suggests, however, I encourage you to finish the entire book for 3 reasons:

1. It will challenge your misconceptions about money and what is possible.

2. It will give the math behind reaching financial independence (so you can create your FI Dream).

3. It will remind you that money isn’t everything - and you’re trading your limited time in life for money.

The book will either make you so excited that you sell everything and try to reach full FIRE in a year or make you roll your eyes at the extreme some folks will go to not work.

In either case, it will remind you there are options.

In the next 30 minutes…

Obviously, you can’t read the book in 30 minutes, so instead, in the next 30 minutes purchase the book on Amazon and block out 30 minutes a day for two weeks to read the book.

Here is the book on Amazon - Your Money or Your Life.

Buy it. (It’s available both in paperback and Kindle, no excuses.)

Now go to your calendar - electronic or paper - and block time (set reminders) for focused reading.

You won’t regret it.

Remember, intentional money equals intentional life.

I hope you all have an amazing week!
