Finance for the People
Getting a Grip on Your Finances
Book • 2022
Finance for the People by Paco de Leon is a unique approach to personal finance that focuses on examining and changing your beliefs and experiences around money.
Unlike most personal finance books, it combines practical exercises with mindfulness and includes over 50 illustrations and diagrams to make financial concepts accessible and fun.
The book helps readers root out unconscious beliefs about money, untangle the mental and emotional burden of student loans, use gratitude practices to alter spending habits, and break out of the debt cycle to begin building wealth.
It is designed for anyone who feels unseen or ignored by traditional personal finance advice and is ready for a journey of self-discovery to step into their financial power.
