What is GREAT About This
Book GREAT CONTENT that you can understand, like the
Latte Factor
EXERCISES to drive points home and take you to the next step
STORIES you can relate to. You can see yourself, your Mom, your Grandmother, your sister, your friend in these stories.
CHUNKS that you can work on. Bring your friends and family along for the ride. Great book club book!

What is NOT So Great About
This Book DATED – I won’t lie. It was written in late 1999 and the
interest rates they use don’t seem realistic any longer
WORK – This is NOT a fun book to read! You need to
do the exercises to make it make a difference. This is
not high level data you can read while in the bath. You
HAVE to take action.
PRINT – My book has small print. I rarely if ever have
to wear glasses to read. With this book, I have to wear
reading glasses.

Money Myths Myth #1 – Make more money and you’ll be rich!
Myth #2 – My husband (or some other man) will take
care of me.
Myth #3 – The Government has finally gotten inflation
under control.

Do Your Habits Reflect Your
VALUES
What do you value in life?
Are your financial habits supportive of that?
Do you want to save for a house but spend money every
day for coffee at Starbucks?
Do you value family but won’t spend money to do a family
dinner
Complete a value ladder to help you put your spending
habits in alignment with your values

The “Bus Book” What happens if you get hit by a bus – does anyone
know where to find your financial records?
Create a “Bus Book” with EVERYTHING in it
TIP: He tells you EXACTLY what to name your files.

Set Your Goals Now that you know where you are, where are you
going?
Exercise takes you from specific goals to desired
outcomes and makes you identify some potential
challenges and strategies to eliminate or lessen those
challenges.

Latte Factor How just a few dollars a week can add up to a lot of
money over time (compounding)
Save $2/day when you hit 20, you’ll have $1 million in
savings by the time you hit 65
EVERYONE can save $2/day.

Don’t Put All Your Eggs in
One Basket! DIVERSIFY – If one basket
falls, you still have eggs
left!
Just 3 baskets!
Security – 6
Retirement
Dream Basket (my
favorite!)
