The Feminist Financial Handbook : A Modern Woman's Guide to a Wealthy Life

Your Guide to Wealth and Success

This truly is the feminist financial handbook for the new wave of intersectional feminism." ―Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

#1 New Release in Volunteer Work and Poverty

Discover real motivation and resources for real women who may be struggling―not only those who have already accumulated wealth.

Live your wealthiest life. Sometimes the best way to stick it to the man is by doing well for yourself. There’s just one problem: it’s hard to do well for yourself when systemic oppression has placed innumerable hurdles between you and your aspirations. 

Find the answers to your money questions. Learn more about general financial planning principles, like saving or earning a higher income, and delve into issues that disproportionately affect women, like the wage gap or the long road to economic recovery after experiencing domestic violence.  The Feminist Financial Handbook has stories and advice from women who have been there, worked through the struggle, and achieved personal success.

Overcome obstacles and master money management. Written in the same passionate tone that has made Femme Frugality a two-time nominee for Best Women’s Finance Blog, The Feminist Financial Handbook acknowledges the financial struggles and oppression modern women face while providing actionable steps to live your wealthiest life and achieve personal success.

Inside learn:

• What wealth and success means for you
• How to earn more and negotiate effectively
• Manageable money-saving methods

If you have read books such as The Financial Diet, The Overspent American, The Price of Motherhood, Hood Feminism, or We Should All Be Millionaires, then you will love The Feminist Financial Handbook.
