Let's face it--talking about money is always awkward. In this user-friendly and approachable guide, finance writer Erin Lowry helps take the stress out of these tricky conversations. With scripts, tips, and troubleshooting advice, she takes you through every possible money talk scenario, including:

    how to tell your friends you can't afford the same lifestyle they can
    how to ask your parents if they can afford retirement and if they'll need your support as they age
    how to talk to your coworkers about your salary and negotiate with your boss
    how to broach the subject of a prenup with your fiancé

Lowry arms you with all of the financial knowledge you'll need in order to get the most out of each interaction, whether that's with your friends, your spouse, your employer, or your mom. It's time to demystify our money and hash out these tough topics with the important people in our lives, and this helpful book will make it all much easier.
