About this audiobook

Quick quiz: What’s the difference between a credit score and a credit report? If you hesitated, welcome to the club. Most of us learned more about mitochondria than about how money actually works. We left school knowing how to solve for x but not how to file taxes or read a pay stub. This book covers what actually matters: how credit works, what’s really happening when you swipe a card, why your paycheck looks smaller than you expected, and what all those retirement account letters mean. You’ll learn how to build a budget that doesn’t make you miserable, what compound interest is doing for (or against) you, and how to stop feeling lost every time someone mentions a 401(k).
