My money my way : taking back control of your financial life
(Book)

Includes index.

"As a newly divorced single mom making $24,000 per year and facing down $77,000 in debt, Kumiko Love worried constantly about money. She saw what other moms had--vacations, birthday parties, a house full of furniture--and felt ashamed that she and her son lived in a small apartment and ate dinner on the floor. Worse, when her feelings began to exhaust her, she binge-shopped, reasoning that she'd feel better after a trip to the mall. On the day she needed to pay for a McDonald's ice cream cone with her credit card, she had an epiphany: money is not the problem. Self-doubt is the problem. Shame is the problem. Guilt is the problem. Society's expectations for her are the problem. She is the solution"--,Provided by publisher.
