The Smart Money Woman: Book Review

Hi you, long time no see, I’ve been a little doubtful about a few things, and I felt the need to put things in place, and create content for and with myself before stringing sentences that I want to make sense.

Anyways, I’ve taken to reading books more often than I’ve indulged myself in. All kinds of books; faith based, motivational, memoirs, novels, money based, and others. The goal is to learn as much as I can while filtering what is meant for me and disposing what isn’t by the help of the Holy Spirit, of course, as per teacher extraordinaire 

I won’t be doing a review on all the books, just a few as the Spirit leads #winks

Moving on, this review is about the recent book I just completed which I’m actually thrilled about; The Smart Money Woman by Arese Ugwu, a beautiful woman and best selling author by the way. 

This book is a few years old, you might have read it, or I might just be the one introducing it 
to you. I would recommend it, if you know you don’t want to live basically from paycheck to paycheck. 

Arese Ugwu writes about a certain Lagos babe and her friends which if you look closely, it might just be you and your group of friends.

Zuri whom is the main character is a Lagos baby girl with a fine job, and a rewarding salary with bonus and incentives, fine apartment in Lekki, fine car, massive wardrobe with designers and all of that good stuff. Her friends are in her league, of course.

Interestingly, baby girl’s life become too exotic and she enters gbese and finds out how lavish her lifestyle is and how her 600k salary seems like chicken change. She begins a journey of being accountable for her money while living the good life

Arese explains in bits and basics on how to work through your finance as an entrepreneur or an employee. After every chapter, there’s a lesson drawn out from Zuri’s life that we can relate to, then she goes on to give an exercise to either avoid that 
situation or get out of it as the case may be for the reader.

Throughout the book she made mention of events and people in Zuris life that we could relate to, like Wimbiz, it’s a conference I think most people should know about, Tara Durotoye and the likes. 

Also, the Nigerian English she inserted in Zuri and her friends vocabulary like abi, etc is always a win win when I’m reading books written by Nigerians.

This book is recommended for young people, make and female, I found it amusing, but most of all, helpful and enlightening. 

I’m impressed by Arese Ugwu.

This book applies to you even with your 20k pocket money or 30k salary, we all should be up for a rude awakening

The book has a captivating cover that draws you to what’s on the inside; that’s just me telling you to package well; ‘don’t judge a book by it’s cover’ hmm, eyin people, not a lot has time to read inside, if outside doesn’t look quite good. I’m not talking just clothes #justsaying 

Unto the next book .......
