Manage your Money like a F*cking Grown Up: The Best Money Advice You Never Got

We never get an instruction manual about how money works. We never have to pass a test to get our Money License before we can take a new credit card for a drive. Most of what we learn about money comes from advertising or from other people who know as little as we do. No wonder we make such basic mistakes. No wonder we feel disempowered and scared. No wonder so many of us just decide to stick our heads in the damn sand and just never deal with it. I wrote this book, because so many of the people I spoke to told me that they wished someone would.

In this clear and engaging basic guide to managing your finances, Sam Beckbessinger covers topics from compound interest and inflation to “Your brain on money”, negotiating a raise, and particularly local South African phenomena like “black tax”. The book includes exercises and “how-to’s”, doesn’t shy away from the psychology of money, and is empowering, humorous and helpful. The book you wish you’d had at 25, but is never too late to read.

Manage Your Money Like a Grownup: Best Money Advice for Teens

You’re never too young to start saving and learning about money. Manage Your Money Like A Grownup, by bestselling author Sam Beckbessinger, aims to get younger readers thinking about the basics of money, laying the solid foundation in financial education that most grownups today never had.

With illustrations, jokes, and fun facts designed to appeal to even the most easily bored reader, this book covers all the basics South African teenagers need to know about money, such as:

  • the relationship between earning, saving and spending;
  • how investing works;
  • why compound interest is a superpower;
  • why we pay taxes; and
  • the ethics of money.

Informed by discussions with real teens and their parents, this book aims to equip readers with practical tips for earning and investing money at any age, and questions to spark lively dinner table conversations.

Making a cup of tea for someone is a more complicated process than you first think

Which way are we leaning: Rooibos or regular? Milk: yes or no? The standard sugar inquiry, a two-part question if the first answer is yes.

And if you have your black belt in tea-making, one final question concerning the tea bag: in or out?

How are you supposed to remember that all if you're making tea for, oh say, 3 people?

It doesn't concern today's deals at all, but we had to think about something while we waited for the kettle to boil.
