Two Books Reviews for July 2016

Image from: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Multiply-Your-Money-Savings-Investments/dp/0857194658/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1470126256&sr=8-1&keywords=multiply+your+money

Teaching you about Savings and Investments. How to create a portfolio if you want to create a passive income on shares, about mortgages and how to tidy up your finances. Really was informative and taught me a lot about shares and what to be careful of, the same with mortgages and savings. How to divide your money into different categories, to help see what is coming in and what is going out.

To have a better financial situation is to save to invest first before spending. I have found this book to really help me with money.

Easy to read through most of the book, but did find it a bit mind boggling at times.

I give this book 8/10​​​

Book written by Barbara Stcherbatcheff it is from a column written in The London Paper. Suzana begins as an Internship inputting numbers. Suzana wants to be a trader, but as the city is dominated by men, it is a very difficult industry for a women to get into. However through networking and her persistence she gets her wish. She ends up in the heart of it all,  Canary Wharf. She even meets the man of her dreams, but her life ends up being dictated by her passion for trading.

Really good read. If you are off on your holidays this is a book to take out of the library or is available via Kindle on Amazon. I did get a bit lost towards the end, when she talks about trading, but apart from that part it was a very empowering story.
Goes to show just because you are a woman doesn't mean we don't have the balls.

I give this book 9/10​​​
