Get Rich, Don't Bitch
Today, more than ever before, wealth is something every woman has the power to create. Yet Jean Chatzky constantly hears all the excuses why women can’t and don’t master their money. Now, she reveals the secrets and the strategies she created to take control of her own money–strategies through which she gained her “money confidence.” It’s time for you to find yours!
In Make Money, Not Excuses Jean shares these valuable lessons:
• Where to start
• How to get over your “I’m not smart enough to deal with money” feelings
• Why being a “good-enough investor” will make more money for you in
the long-term (while trying to be a “great investor” will drive you crazy)
• How (and where) to save your money
• Why women make better investors––and higher returns––than men
• How to track where you’re overspending
• How to pay off your debt
Jean is unsurpassed in her ability to explain money and investing in simple, straightforward ways. Here she breaks down the scariest parts of dealing with money–from investing in stocks to saving for your retirement–and makes them practical, easy, empowering, and, yes, even enjoyable. This is your road map to real wealth.
“Chatzky writes like the smart, candid best friend you wish you had.”

Make Money, Not Excuses
| Customer Rating: | | This book gets right to the point about what women need to be doing for their financial future. It speaks in a language that is easy to understand. |
Maybe for you, but not for me...
| Customer Rating:  | | If you are a 30-something corporate wife, than this is the book for you. While I enjoy watching segments of Jean Chatsky on Today, her book disappointmented me. She speaks to a population of women who are most likely married and have children. However, neither of those apply to me. I was looking for some tips that aren't common sense, yet most of her advice is common sense. Ladies, we all know we won't help our savings account if we buy $129 cashmere sweaters, yet Jean thinks that needs to be discussed numerous times, as well as online banking--a topic that is explained at least 5 times. If you never read or listened to financial advice, this may work for you. Otherwise, you probably already know these ideas and just need to find a way to motivate yourself. |
A crowd pleaser
| Customer Rating: | | I see why Jean Chatzky is so popular, she really can break things down so that anyone at any level can understand them. At times I was hoping for something more but felt that I learned a lot nonetheless. |
Practical insights -- not fluff (a "good" thing)
| Customer Rating: | I think Suzy Orman gave this industry (financial self-help) a bad name. Jean has restored its lustre.
Jean provides a thorough overview of the process of optimizing ones financial affairs. I'm in the investment management business (with Ivy degrees -- whatever that is worth) and am generally skeptical of this stuff, but Jean gives tangible, actionable insights, and writes with great skill. A clever book that is also useful -- rare.
