The Breakfast Club for 40-Somethings

A Novel Approach to Unlearning Money and Reinventing Your Life

De: Vanessa Stoykov

Narrado por: Caz Prescott

High school's over. We're no longer the nerd, the athlete, the princess, or the bad boy. Instead, we are the parent, worker, wife, husband, daughter, or son. But we all have things in common - and one of them is money.

People have always sought financial freedom, but our influences, from our parents to our community, have made our grounding in money anything but helpful. In fact, that grounding might be the thing that is holding us back. The Breakfast Club for 40-Somethings draws upon the five major lessons you need to unlearn about the way you see your life and money to give you the best chance of getting the future you want.

Written in the form of a novel from the perspective of six unique characters, the book explores how the different financial decisions and behaviours of each character have led to their current situations. Through this entertaining story, this guide presents the invaluable financial and life lessons you need to understand, and to build a solid foundation for your life, no matter your situation.

If you don't like traditional self-help or finance books, this is for you. The Breakfast Club for 40-Somethings offers a new and entertaining way to change your long-term financial behaviours for the better.

Fun and creative, but lacks substantive content

I found the book and the underlying story entertaining and funny, and the way the author weaved in finance principles was very creative. The performance was also very creative in that there were different voices, mimicking of cell phone conversations, etc. The performance really brought you into the story. Overall, however, substance was lacking (but then again I'm very well read on the subject of personal finance). I would definitely recommend this book to folks of a certain age (read the title) that are familiar with the "Breakfast Club" movie and are looking for a fun and easy-to-read introduction to personal finance and retirement planning.
