Everything You Should Probably Know About Money

Nobody hands you a manual for money. So we made one.

You’re expected to know how checking accounts work. How to build a budget. What actually affects your credit score. How taxes come out of your paycheck. How much you should save. Which debt to pay off first. Whether renting or buying makes more sense. How investing works. What retirement accounts are for. And eventually, how all of those pieces fit together into something resembling financial freedom.

That’s a lot to figure out on your own.

Everything You Should Probably Know About Money brings the complete Adulting With Alexis money collection together in one comprehensive guide, taking you from the fundamentals of managing your first dollar all the way through investing and building a long-term financial independence plan.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

• Choose bank accounts that actually work for you
• Build a realistic budget without making yourself miserable
• Create an emergency fund and sustainable saving habits
• Understand credit cards, loans, credit scores, and debt
• Make sense of paychecks, taxes, benefits, and retirement accounts
• Evaluate major expenses like housing and insurance
• Understand compound interest and use it in your favor
• Calculate and grow your net worth
• Start investing without needing to become a Wall Street expert
• Build a financial independence roadmap around the life you actually want

This isn’t a book about getting rich overnight, cutting every small joy out of your budget, or pretending there’s one perfect way to manage money.

It’s about understanding how money works well enough to make informed decisions, build systems that survive real life, and keep getting a little better over time.

Three books. One complete guide. Your money, from the basics to financial freedom.
