Product Description

Recession-Proof Your Mind and Rewire Your Brain for Wealth

As financial stress mounts and an economic crash looms, Wired for Wealth shows you that the biggest threat to your financial health is not a recession; it's your brain. Markets go up and markets go down, but one fact holds true: Your money scripts—the unconscious core beliefs you hold about money—will determine whether you win or lose in the long run. But there is hope. Drawing on the results of a landmark survey of people's money habits, as well as their decades of work improving their clients' financial lives, renowned financial psychologists Drs. Brad Klontz and Ted Klontz and financial planner Rick Kahler, CFP® show you how you can rewire your brain for wealth. Their unexpected insights show you how you can free yourself from excessive debt, financial stress, money avoidance, and a lack of savings. You'll discover:

• The top 10 money scripts that mess up people's financial lives—and how to change them
• How to identify your 'financial comfort zone'—and how to break through it
• How to curtail family money issues, including financial infidelity, financially dependent children, and conflicts over money
• What to do if your money scripts are keeping you poor by overspending, underspending, excessive debt, lack of savings, and lack of retirement planning
• What to do if your money scripts keeping you poor in spirit—how to release guilt and fear for good, and be at peace with what you have.

Entertaining and enlightening, Wired for Wealth will put you in control of your finances and enable you to break through to new levels of wealth and security.

I couldn't put this wonderful book down once I started reading it. People and the way they handle their money has always amazed me. This book gives some great insights into why I do certain things with my money and helped me to better understand why people may behave in a certain way when it comes to a money matter. I have already recommended this book to a couple of friends who make a very comfortable six figure living, but don't have nothing to show for it.
