About this audiobook
Catherine Alford won't pretend mothers don't have a lot on their plate. She already knows they're pressed for time. The weight of their daily decisions takes a toll. Sometimes, it feels like they manage everything, whether they have a supportive spouse or not. She knows this because it's that way in her house too. However, we all have a choice on how to handle that responsibility, and Alford thinks we can flip the script. Instead of being frustrated or feeling resentful, Alford teaches moms how to recognize their own strengths and develop true financial confidence.
In this book, you'll learn how to: become an exceptional leader of your family with a growth mindset; calculate your net worth; effectively budget and manage your household cash flow; work with your spouse or partner on financial goals; understand what impacts your credit score; ensure you pay all your bills on time, every time; make sure you plan for emergencies; protect your family by buying term life insurance; do the math on childcare costs vs. career costs when having a family; plan and save for holiday spending, birthdays, and special events; and learn the art and joy of giving.
Ideal for moms everywhere, but especially new and millennial moms, Mom's Got Money is an indispensable guide to taking financial control of your life.
