Reading personal finance books is a great way to get valuable knowledge and tips that can help you take your finances to the next level. A good personal finance book is one that drops credible and simple gems on the psychology behind managing money, budgeting, savings, investments, and conquering debt.

    Learning how and where to begin on your financial journey can sometimes feel confusing and overwhelming. Here are a few selections that will equip you with everything you need to feel empowered in making sound decisions along the way.

    The first step in taking control of our finances, is to try to understand why we believe what we do about money. How does money make you feel? Does spending make you anxious or happy?

We need to understand the root of all our personal money beliefs and begin to write ourselves new stories.

    11. One Page Financial Plan: A Simple Way to Be Smart About Your Money by Carl Richards

    The most important thing is getting clarity about the big picture so you can cope with the unexpected. Maybe you’ll lose the job you thought was secure; you’ll take a financial risk that doesn’t pan out; you’ll have twins when you were only budgeting for one. In other words: Life will happen.

    But no matter what happens, this book will help you bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to go.
