Publisher's Note On her wedding day, Mary Hunt breathed a sigh of relief because she would no longer have to worry about "man stuff" like car trouble and money. But the seeds of financial disaster had already been planted during her free-spending college days. Years later, she and her husband were both unemployed and $100,000 in debt. But instead of giving up, Mary changed her habits, paid off her creditors, and took control of her financial life with confidence. In this book, she invites others to learn from her mistakes with a unique blend of humor, insight, and common sense. Financial trouble, Mary discovered, is not a money problem: it's an attitude problem. "This is not a book about budgets", she writes. "It is about how to identify irresponsible and negative financial behaviors and change them forever". Once women recognize they can be successful stewards of their resources, regardless of their income, the journey toward financial security can begin. -- Tells the story of Mary's journey to the brink of financial disaster and back -- Documents the hidden dangers of easy credit -- Shows women how to control their own financial futures -- Identifies nine characteristics of financially responsible women -- Offers detailed plans for turning bad financial habits around and putting sound financial principles into action
