Getting Money

Have you ever felt you were drowning in financial advice but still didn't know how to make the most of your hard-earned money?

Money affects almost every decision you make, but understanding it can feel expensive, confusing and completely overwhelming.

Drawing on a decade of advising thousands of Australians, Rachel Cole tackles the 20 questions people ask her most, including how much to save, whether you can really afford that car, how tax works, what childcare is costing you and which financial choices will leave you better off.

Every short, practical chapter gives you two things: the actions that can put more money in your hand and the knowledge that helps you understand what is happening in your head. You will learn what to do now, why it works and how Australian tax, regulation and the wider economy shape your finances.

Straight-talking, funny and grounded in real experience, this is a book you can return to whenever life changes or a new money question appears. You will finish it better informed, harder to mislead and more confident about every dollar you earn, spend and save.
