Love Your Life Not Theirs
by Rachel Cruze
Seven money habits that start with quitting comparison: budget, debt, saving, talking about money, paying it forward, and so on, in the Ramsey family's voice. It is plain, practical and aimed at people whose spending is driven by what others appear to have.
Read it if…
social media makes you spend and you want a budget that fits your life rather than theirs.
Skip it if…
you already budget and only want investing; see other books.
Three things you will actually use
- Comparison is the thief of financial peace.
- A budget is permission, not punishment.
- Talk about money before it becomes a fight.
Do this first
Unfollow the accounts that make you spend, then build a zero-based budget.
Our verdict
Quit comparing, then budget.
