IBPA BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AWARD WINNER and INDEPENDENT PUBLISHER BOOK AWARD WINNER

Wealth manager and host of The Fiscal Feminist podcast Kimberlee Davis taps her 25 years’ experience to teach women how to take charge of their money and control their financial destiny.

As a woman, you’re likely to live longer, earn less, and have to work harder than men to get ahead, especially if you’ve spent time out of the workforce raising children. What’s more, the pandemic has undone decades of progress in women’s long, slow march toward financial equality.

The good news is, you can improve your financial health and take charge of your destiny by increasing your financial literacy and healing your money issues. Kimberlee Davis, a wealth manager and host of The Fiscal Feminist podcast, taps her twenty-five years’ experience to show you how to independently achieve—and maintain—financial wellness on your own terms, no matter your age or circumstances.

In this book, you’ll learn how to:

  • Dismantle obstacles to your financial health
  • Make career choices that are in keeping with your financial goals
  • Implement the five key steps to fiscal freedom
  • Money-proof your relationship
  • Get a jump start on retirement funding
  • Avoid hidden financial risks and technology traps
  • Invest for financial independence

Davis’s empowering message is: The better you understand your finances and your own choices regarding money, the more likely you will be to secure your future in both calm and turbulent times. This book will show you how.

From the Publisher

FACT: 85% of women manage their household’s everyday expenses, yet only 23% of them take the lead in long-term financial planning. Why is this? In The Fiscal Feminist, private wealth manager Kimberlee Davis points to a two-fold crisis among women when it comes to their money decisions: an issue of competence (acting with skill) and confidence (acting without fear).

First, regarding competence: women are a remarkably smart, hardworking group. We are better educated than men. We start more businesses. And studies show that when we do invest, we get better returns.

But we don’t invest enough or plan proactively enough, and this is in large part related to how we feel about our finances—our level of confidence. Many women assume that men are naturally better at handling money, or that they’ve picked up more training in life, or that managing finances is a scary task they shouldn’t have to do. But none of that is true.

This book closes both the competence and confidence gaps by teaching you how to:

Achieve financial literacy.

Establish the right tools and rules for managing your money.

Plan for the future.

this MUST READ book and is basically everything we were never taught about money. It should be mandatory reading for women (and men, frankly).Did you know that when they have children, women take a 4% hit on her income and men get a 6% boost? It's called the motherhood penalty. Did you know that as recently as 1976, women in the US needed a male to co-sign their credit card application? There's more.... but this book is also chock full of tips and strategies that are useful no matter where you are on your personal financial management journey.

I found this book to be informative and also an easy read. For many of us, the financial world of investments is a mystery and so we hire brokers or park our money in an account and pray that it will be enough for our retirement and well being. We know it’s important to understand how it all works but we decide that it’s too difficult or boring and carry on! This book breaks it down in a way that we can all understand and it gives a road map on what to do so we can also be prepared for any changes in our lives ( ie retirement, long term care, divorce, etc). The Author shares her own life experiences and how she achieved financial independence after many life altering events. She really breaks down how women can protect themselves and the steps they need to take to be financially secure. The book is very affordable and worth every penny. The information is priceless!

This book is AMAZING. I’ve read every personal finance book out there…from Suze Orman to Dave Ramsey, Rachel Cruze etc etc etc. This is the first book where I feel confident that if I follow the guidance in each chapter I can set myself up for a solid financial future. I already bought five copies to give to other women in my life and would recommend this book above and beyond any other!!!

Kim’s writing is accessible and empowering—I appreciate how she breaks down concepts and vocabulary instead of just assuming that everyone should know this information automatically. She covers so many topics including marriage/divorce, cohabitation, debt, retirement, estate planning, and includes real world statistics and vignettes in each chapter to help the reader understand the historical context. As Kim says, ignorance is not bliss, and women need to take control of their financial future by becoming knowledgeable and taking action.

For any woman who feels like they don't know enough (or anything) about their personal or family finances, this book is for you! I've always been intimidated by financial concepts and as a result, have usually left my finances to other people in my life (parents, husband) to deal with, but after reading this book I feel much more motivated and equipped to manage and shape the trajectory of my own finances. The book makes a powerful case for why it is essential for women to be active participants in their own finances and offers a digestible, implementable roadmap showing us how to do just that. I'm leaving this book armed with an arsenal of practical strategies I will actually be able to implement in my daily life and feel much more empowered (and even excited!) to take control of my financial future. Cannot recommend this book enough!

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I took a fancy year long financial education class for women in 2021 written by two female Ivy League grads. The Fiscal Feminist speaks to everything I learned in the year long class with the added bonus of very recent stats and research citations on women and economics which is a personal passion of mine. The writing style is super easy and interesting to read. I love the title too!

The Fiscal Feminist is a book I feel every woman needs to read. It captures all areas of finances and gives excellent knowledge that is easy to understand. It had great information to apply to any woman, wherever she is on her financial journey.

What an absolutely fantastic book for women needing to learn the guiding principles and techniques for managing money wisely. And by taking total control of your finances, Kim shows you how to enjoy the power, freedom, and personal security you can achieve by following her advice. Her book could be the game changer you need right now, or a great resource too if you think you are already on the right track! Men should also read this book as the advice works for us as well!
Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2023
I loved the fact that Kimberlee Davis told us the facts. Women need to plan more aggressively for their retirement, and it is a fact that women earn less than men. She gives us perfect recommendations and this book tells it all. A must read to achieve financial security as you age.
