7 Books That Will Change How You Handle Money

Research shows that the majority of Americans are financially illiterate, meaning they lack the skills necessary to manage their money wisely.1 Whether it's how much you should be putting away each month for retirement or whether you can afford that jacket you've had your eye on, financial literacy encompasses it all. It also implies ideas like going bankrupt, investing in a 401(k), and price increases. Financial illiteracy is especially pervasive in impoverished and minority communities.
