Personal Finance Books by Women of Color

I read everyday but lately, I’ve been into more personal finance than my usual fiction thriller stories. Here are the 2024 finance books I’m reading and who I think they would be helpful for:

💵 RICH AF by Vivian Tu: Great for beginners and if you’re new to personal finance. She explains finances in terms that are most applicable to Genz and I love her writing style.

💰Girls That Invest by Simran Kaur: Perfect for the intermediate level folks, who want to learn how to make their money work for them through investing. There are alot of diagrams and pictures to explain how to invest, various terms, and what to look for when selecting funds.

🤑Financial Freedom by Jamilia Souffrant: For the folks who want to retire early (before 65) and already have set their budget and retirement plan in place, but want additional steps. Love this book and I love the strategies she offers.

💸Your First Million by Arlan Hamilton: For the entreprenuers that want to go beyond their 9-5 and really put their money to work. Arlan talks about how to build several streams of income to make your first million and then some.

Save this for later for when you’re bookshopping!
