Twitter summary: Learn how to happily spend your money, guilt-free. Seriously.
The good: I love the way Shannon simply breaks down financial planning concepts with practical examples. Her formula is fool proof and extremely easy to apply to my own life. Yes, there is a bit of hard work to truly identify your emotional return on investment on expenses but it is well worth it. I finally have a financial plan that I can commit to without any worries. Gone are my days of “I’ll just stop buying clothes for a month to save $x” or “I’ll just stop dining out for a few weeks to get back on track” — those were not sustainable plans. I’m thrilled that I have actual short-term savings goals and a decent amount of spending money for whatever I want!
The bad: I wish I discovered Shannon and her book earlier.
Recommendation: Do you ever worry (and insert every possible other emotion) about money? If yes, please read and apply this book!
