Financial Feminist
Financial Feminist: Overcome the Patriarchy's Bullsh*t to Master Your Money and Build a Life You Love | Tori Dunlap
6 posts | 3 read | 9 to read
From the globally-recognized personal finance educator and social media star behind Her First $100K, an inclusive guide to all things money--from managing debt to investing and voting with your dollars Tori Dunlap was always good with money. As a kid, she watched her prudent parents balance their checkbook every month and learned to save for musical tickets by gathering pennies in an Altoids tin. But she quickly discovered that her experience with money was pretty unusual, especially among her female friends. It wasn't our fault. Investigating this financial literacy and wealth gap, Tori found that girls are significantly less likely to receive a holistic financial education; we're taught to restrain our spending, while boys are taught about investing and rewarded for pursuing wealth. In adulthood, women are hounded by the unfounded stereotype of the frivolous spenders whose lattes are to blame for the wealth gap. And when something like, say, a global pandemic happens, we're the first to have jobs cut and the last to re-enter the workforce. It's no wonder money is a source of anxiety and a barrier to equality for so many of us. But what if money didn't mean restriction, and instead, choice? The ability to luxuriously travel, quit toxic jobs, donate to important organizations, retire early? The freedom to live the life you want, and change the world while you do it? Tori founded Her First $100K to teach women to overcome the unique obstacles standing in the way of their financial freedom. In Financial Feminist, she distills the principles of her shame- and judgment-free approach to paying off debt, figuring out your value categories to spend mindfully, saving money without monk-like deprivation, and investing in order to spend your retirement tanning in Tulum. Featuring journaling prompts, deep-dives into the invisible aspects of the financial landscape, and interviews with experts on everything money--from predatory credit card companies to the racial wealth gap and voting with your dollars--Financial Feminist is the ultimate guide to making your money work harder for you (rather than the other way around.)

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

I‘ve had these two on hold for 3 months now, will be many more months (on Libby) I don‘t know my way around Libby but so far it‘s dang busy. Oh well.

AmandaBlaze Most libraries let you have ecards even if you don't live in the system. For example, I have 7 ecards to various libraries in my home state of Ohio. It kinda levels the Libby hold system because you have more chances to finding the books available on the different systems. 10mo
Ladygodiva7 @AmandaBlaze That‘s good to know! How do you get an ecard? This is on my regular library card. 10mo
AmandaBlaze @Ladygodiva7 Apply for a card through the library's website. Some will send you a physical card that you can enter on Libby. Others just email you the barcode and pin. 10mo
Ladygodiva7 @AmandaBlaze 🤍Thank you! 10mo

I woke up late this morning and had to scramble to get to my aquatics class, and I‘ve been behind all day. Anyway, without further adieu…
1. There are many possibilities here, but I think a book on finances would have been very helpful. Tagged book might have made me 🤯 but in a good way?
2. It depends on the friend!
3. I‘d love to hang out with Val McDermid. She seems cool, and she has a wonderful accent. #wondrouswednesday

I heard an interview with the author and knew I needed to read this book. When I borrowed it from Libby, I saw that it came with questions and exercises, so I plan to get my own copy. #financerelated #maymontage

CollapsingLibrary I didn‘t realize her book was out already. I followed her podcast when she first started it and loved her! 2y

I have followed Tori Dunlop on Social Media and was always impressed with her ability to shake the social norms that exist in our society around money. I was so excited to pre-order this! When it arrived today I could not wait to dive in! Through chapter 1, and I am loving it! I recommend this to EVERYONE! This is more than a financial book. This book is a kick in the nuts to the oppressive patriarchal society and I am hear for it!
