Manage your Money like a F*cking Grown Up: The Best Money Advice You Never Got

We never get an instruction manual about how money works. We never have to pass a test to get our Money License before we can take a new credit card for a drive. Most of what we learn about money comes from advertising or from other people who know as little as we do. No wonder we make such basic mistakes. No wonder we feel disempowered and scared. No wonder so many of us just decide to stick our heads in the damn sand and just never deal with it. I wrote this book, because so many of the people I spoke to told me that they wished someone would.

In this clear and engaging basic guide to managing your finances, Sam Beckbessinger covers topics from compound interest and inflation to “Your brain on money”, negotiating a raise, and particularly local South African phenomena like “black tax”. The book includes exercises and “how-to’s”, doesn’t shy away from the psychology of money, and is empowering, humorous and helpful. The book you wish you’d had at 25, but is never too late to read.

Make Your Money Work for You: Think Big, Start Small

Do you dream of a future free of financial stress? One where you can afford to start your own business, travel or retire comfortably?

In Make Your Money Work for You, investment specialist Anthea Gardner shows you how to ‘sweat your assets’ and grow your wealth to achieve these dreams – and you won’t even need a degree in accounting. Gardner makes the world of investing accessible by:

• Illustrating why it’s important to know the difference between saving and investing.
• Explaining key terms, from ‘unit trusts’ and ‘retirement annuities’ to ‘compound interest’.
• Clarifying the role of different players, such as financial advisors and asset managers.
• Describing how easy it is to buy shares on the stock market.

You don’t need millions to start. You can launch your financial future by investing just R100 per month. It’s time to take action and make your money work for you.
