Synopsis
Leave your money worries behind.
Most personal finance is boring, stressful, and quite frankly, has far too few cats. There are a lot of resources out there but most don't take into account the way many of us work these days: with variable income, side hustles, and no access to things like a 401K.
Lillian Karabaic began teaching personal finance because she was frustrated with the lack of queer-friendly, feminist, and, most of all, fun personal finance education especially stuff that deals with actual real-life money issues and doesn't assume you have a full-time job with benefits, 2.5 kids, and a white picket fence.
A Cat's Guide to Money will help you identify your personal values and priorities, craft a customized budget, pay off your debt, and achieve financial security. All in good humor and with tons of hands-on exercises and sweet kitty illustrations.
In A Cat's Guide to Money, you will learn about: The Cat Tower of Financial Well-Being, Purrfecting your budget: Creating a system that actually works for you, Dealing with debt: Simple steps to smash your debt, Learning to love saving, how and why to save for retirement, Using credit: Your credit score, how to fix it if you need to, and common credit myths and Renting vs. buying plus identifying which kinds of insurance you actually need.
