Get paid what you're worth, build secure relationships, and make your money last with this valuable guide from a Today show financial editor and bestselling author. Ask successful women what they want from their money and they'll tell you: independence, security, choices, a better world, and--oh yes--way less stress, not just for themselves but for their kids, partners, parents, and friends. Through a series of HerMoney Happy Hour discussions (when money is the topic, wine helps) and one-on-one conversations, Jean Chatzky gets women to open up about the one topic we still never talk about. Then she flips the script and charts a pathway to this joyful, purpose-filled life that today's women not only want but also, finally, have the resources to afford. Women With Money shows readers how to wrap their hands around tactical solutions to get paid what they deserve, become inspired to start businesses, invest for tomorrow, make their money last, and then use that money to foster secure relationships, raise independent and confident children, send those kids to college, care for their aging parents, leave a legacy, and--best of all--bring them joy!

Booklist Review

Today Show financial expert Chatzky (AgeProof, 2017) offers this females-and-money tome bolstered by research into the psychological underpinnings behind money relationships as well as her own series of happy-hour discussions and one-on-one conversations with Philadelphia women of varied ages and circumstances. Her findings make her recommendations all that much more real and, occasionally, even poignant in the stories she relates. Exercises will help readers confront money demons and encourage dialogues about unspoken fears, angers, and concerns. A few examples: fill in the blank to the money secret I've been keeping is ___. Or What messages did your mother/father pass down to you as a child? Much of the other content is standard, such as negotiating for salaries/promotions, understanding investments and the obstacles launching a business, etc. At the end, it is all about being financially independent, expressing the difference between wants and needs, telling yourself no and learning how to wait, and knowing that it's not the end of the world to fail. Sensible and sensitive.--Barbara Jacobs Copyright 2019 Booklist

Library Journal Review

Despite controlling more money than ever before, women have a unique view of money--psychologically, emotionally, and pragmatically--that differs greatly from the average male viewpoint. Believing that money complicates relationships, women tend to be more risk-averse than men, often relinquishing financial decisions to their partners rather than dealing with it themselves. In focusing on the female perspective of money management, Chatzky (Money Rules) discusses everyday financial decisions including IRAs, 401(k)s, credit cards, loans, buying or renting a home, mortgages and reverse mortgages, investing, helping aging parents, teaching children good financial habits, giving to charity, and life-stage and estate planning. Presenting up-to-date information from the female perspective and addressing concerns specific to women with excellent practical suggestions and explanations, the author's well-paced reading enhances this title. Verdict Chatzky's refreshing take on women's approach to money is both practical and fascinating. Will appeal to a wide range of listeners.--Laurie Selwyn, formerly with Grayson Cty.
