New Book For Millennials Offers Unique Personal Finance Advice

Palmyra, Va. (PRWEB) October 18, 2016

Tony Robbins, Kevin O'Leary, Drew Barrymore, Jim Cramer, Ivanka Trump, Cynthia Rowley and others deliver personal finance lessons to millennials in new book, "How to Be a Financial Grownup: Proven Advice from High Achievers on How to Live Your Dreams and Have Financial Freedom," which was released today by Maven House Press. In the book, author and award-winning Reuters journalist Bobbi Rebell shares candid stories from 30 inspiring and successful financial Role Models. The stories, which she has dubbed "Financial Grownup moments" – the moments the Role Models realized they had to pay attention to money, or else – will surprise and delight readers.

"'How to Be a Financial Grownup' was a project that grew organically. Each time I interviewed a Role Model, I didn't know what to expect. I was so grateful for their generosity in revealing what were often truly painful and emotional experiences. The stories are like nothing anyone has ever read in a personal finance book. I'm so excited to share the results of this journalism experiment gone very, very right," said author Rebell. "The stories really came together to form a wonderful roadmap for starting to pay attention to money."

The book, which includes a foreword by New York Times #1 bestselling author Tony Robbins, offers specific, easy-to-follow tips and advice from Rebell and a team of financial experts. Readers gain practical guidance on investing, insurance, debt and charitable giving, as well as more unexpected topics like the role money plays in etiquette, friendships and dating, and nutrition and wellness. Rebell even talks pet insurance!
