The New York Times bestselling money guide for people in their twenties and thirties—it’s all-new, and just in time! This completely revised and updated 5th edition will help Gen Z and millennials get a financial life.

If you’re in your twenties or thirties, you probably think you’ll never live as well as your parents. And who can blame you?

Rents are higher than they’ve been in years, and the concept of buying a home of your own seems like a pipe dream. You’re carrying more student debt than any previous generation, while confronting an extremely tough job market in incredibly uncertain times. It’s not surprising that many of you have turned to credit cards—or your parents—to help you get by. Even if you are fortunate enough to have a job and a 401(k), the uncertainty of the economy, surging prices, and the volatility of the market make you worry if you’re investing in the right way.

For three decades and counting, Beth Kobliner’s bestseller Get a Financial Life: Personal Finance in Your Twenties and Thirties has been the leading financial guide for young people. Whether you’re trying to climb the corporate ladder or doing your own thing, whether you’re single or partnered up, whether you’re financially inclined or fiscally challenged, this book offers advice that has stood the test of time—as well as fresh information to make smart decisions today.

In this new edition, Kobliner teaches you how to pay down debt, get a good return on your savings, and plan for your future. Straight from the latest research, learn how to choose the right bank, avoid excessive fees, and rein in spending. You’ll get unbiased advice on the latest trends in personal finance—from neobanks and finfluencers to online fraud and cryptocurrency. And you’ll get answers to important questions: When is it smart to rent rather than buy (and vice versa)? How can I really improve my credit score? When is the right time to invest in the stock market—and how? How do I save money on my taxes?

Get a Financial Life has already helped half a million people get a handle on their money, no matter how much or little they have. No wonder it’s remained the young money bible for more than thirty years.
