Rich as F*** by Amanda Frances

Money at 30: "Rich as F***" Audiobook Review

To cap off 2021, I decided to take one last dive into the Audible library to find a financial audiobook that might strike my fancy. What I came across was Rich as F***: More Money Than You Know What to Do With by Amanda Frances. While I'm unfamiliar with Frances, I'd be lying if I said the title and cover didn't grab my attention. Additionally, while the printed version of...

Money at 30: "At Your Best" Audiobook Review

If you're anything like me, you probably go to bed thinking about what a productive day you're going to have come morning. Even as that new day unfolds, you still hold out hope that your to-do list will be crushed before the day's end. Yet, somewhere along the way, everything gets derailed and even a post-mortem can't help you determine just what exactly went so wrong. Seeing as this happens...

Money at 30: "The Passion Economy" Book Review

Have you ever stopped to think about how many people today are doing jobs that didn't exist a decade ago?

Money at 30: "Get the Hell Out of Debt" Audiobook Review

After turning to the printed word for my last book review, this month, I headed back to Audible to see what money-related audiobooks I could discover. What I found was Get the Hell Out of Debt: The Proven 3-Phase Method That Will Radically Shift Your Relationship by author Erin Skye Kelly.

Money at 30: "Broke Millennial Talks Money" Book Review

As much as I've enjoyed listening to audiobooks over the past few months thanks to my Audible subscription, this weekend, it was time to return to the world of physical media by reading a book I've had on my list for a while.

Die With Zero book cover

Money at 30: "Die With Zero" Audiobook Review

Titling a book can be a bit of a challenge — perhaps even more so in the world of non-fiction. Although your subtitle can do a lot of the heavy lifting, your main title needs to be both catchy and memorable while also laying out the premise of your work and presenting a promise you can deliver on. Well, with a title like Die With Zero: Getting All You Can...
Nomadland book cover

Money at 30: "Nomadland" Book Review

Under normal circumstances, Hollywood's annual awards season would have already concluded by this time of year. Of course, the past several months have been anything but normal — including for the film industry. In any case, as we enter a delayed 2021 awards season, one movie seems to be the odds-on favorite having already won Best Motion Picture - Drama at the recent Golden Globes: Nomadland starring Frances McDormand. Although...

Money at 30: "Know Yourself, Know Your Money" Book Review

Ever since I decided to start consuming and review more personal finance books, I've realized that I tend to stay in one main arena — namely early retirement and financial independence.

The most interesting development in my mind...
