Deeper than money Ditch money shame, build wealth, and feel confident AF

Chloe Elise

Book - 2023

"A guide for women to find financial confidence, say goodbye to guilt, and finally get ahead with money without sacrificing what they care about, from money expert, podcaster, and CEO Chloe Elise. This is not your average finance book. Like most people these days, Elise went to college not only with student loans, but also completely clueless as to how debt even worked. Instead of abiding by restrictive, guilt-filled advice, she set off on a new debt-payoff journey where she made the rules. Fast-forward eighteen months, and not only did she become completely debt-free, paying off more than $36,000 of debt, but she did it while traveling and enjoying life in her twenties. And now she's sharing how you can do it, too. In Deeper Than... Money, Elise demystifies finance for anyone who feels stuck in cycles of guilt around spending. Part practical guide to finance and part motivational kick in the butt to set yourself up for success, this book is all about showing how to live your life, love your finances, and make money matter less. It'll have you ready to talk about money at brunch with your friends, and finally allow you to get ahead with money-without skipping the mimosa. Deeper Than Money will help you level up not only your finances, but also your life. Because in order to enjoy the wealth you're building, you also need to enjoy the life you're living"--

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Elise, CEO of the financial literacy company Deeper Than Money, debuts with an informative primer aimed at young women on how to save for the future and accumulate wealth. To get started, the author recommends setting up a checking account with a linked debit card and putting enough money to cover a month of expenses in a high-yield savings account. She details how to come up with a budget, suggesting readers conduct an audit of how they use their money each month and adjust expenses to accord with their goals. Tips for freeing up money include canceling infrequently used subscriptions and renegotiating the interest rate on credit card debt. Elise emphasizes focusing one's spending on what one cares about rather than cutting expenses across the board, describing how she helped a client renegotiate her rent so that she could afford to continue frequenting "coffee shops to work and get into a creative headspace." The straightforward discussions of financial matters (Elise explains the purpose of credit scores with an imagined anecdote about lending money to an unreliable friend who doesn't pay back promptly) and chatty prose ("Ya just gotta get this one done," she writes about completing a self-audit) are ideal for readers intimidated by more technical finance fare. The result is a solid introduction to how young people can start saving. (Aug.)
