Financial Intimacy: How To Create A Healthy Relationship With Your Money And Your Mate by Jacquette M. Timmons
Financial Intimacy
I read it from cover to cover and found it interesting. The author first presents stories of several women from varying backgrounds, ethnicities, and income levels, and shows how their relationship to money affected their relationship with their mates.
The author points out throughout her book that a person’s relationship with money really dictates the rest of their lives. In fact, she suggests that it’s really not about money at all, but how you relate to money is really all about choices and lifestyle and beliefs. It’s important to note that most women want to feel taken care of and she refers to this as the “Prince Charming Effect”.
is a great read for anyone wanting to brush up on various aspects of personal finance ranging from reducing taxes to investing to budgeting.

is by far the most entertaining book I have read so far about entrepreneurship. It has a very matter-of-fact tone and while reading it I feel as if the author is speaking directly to me. The language used is very conversational and easy to follow, although I must admit there is some colorful language throughout the book.
