The Gen Z Anti‑Broke Playbook

The Real‑World Money Guide You Should’ve Gotten in School

Most Gen Z “money advice” sounds like boomers yelling at you to stop buying lattes.

Meanwhile, you’re paying for gym, Spotify, Netflix, cloud storage, random apps you forgot about, plus late‑night delivery and impulse buys that somehow add up to “how am I broke again?” a week before payday. You were never really taught how to handle money in the world you actually live in, but you’re still blamed for not magically knowing what to do.

This book starts from a simple idea: it’s not really your fault you’re bad with money. School didn’t teach you. Your parents probably didn’t explain it in a way that made sense. And every app and platform around you is optimized to make you spend first and think later.

The Gen Z Anti‑Broke Playbook is the missing manual.

In a blunt, scroll‑stopping style, it shows you how to:
• Run a quick “where did my money go?” autopsy and finally see the truth
• Kill invisible leaks like subscriptions and boredom buys without feeling deprived
• Tame impulse spending with simple rules you can actually stick to
• Build a chill, low‑maintenance money system that runs in the background
• Handle irregular income, side hustles, and creator money without chaos
• Start doing the boring, powerful moves that make future‑you impossible to break

This isn’t a budgeting lecture. It’s a practical, no‑BS guide to becoming the “anti‑broke” friend: the one who still has fun, but quietly has their life together.
