- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Wow, this was an eye-opener for me. I pulled this book off the library shelf because I liked the title, read it and then bought it. This is a marvelous book about one woman's trials with money (having tons she ignored and then lost to a husband that was doing foolish things with it). Through her own journey to get smart about money on many levels, she examines the reasons, both personal and social, that she had a mental block around dealing with the financial aspects of life. She noticed that most women seem to have a similar blindspot and this book encourages every woman to truly get smart about our financial system. Leaving it up to "the man" only makes women vulnerable (and often irresponsible) when there is no need to be.
