Tipped (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798985648126)

Tipped employees make up more than four million working professionals in the U.S. and they age into one of the most economically disadvantaged populations in the country. (But not for the reasons you think!) Tipped is here to change that, and your life.

Tipped is your step-by-step guidebook to build your own path to financial freedom while working in the industry that you love (and love to hate).

Tipped explains how service employees are left out of the most common paths to wealth building and then helps you build your own path to the financial life of your dreams.

Through real stories and service industry related analogies, Tipped will teach you how to:

• Get started investing today-and actually understand the world of investing
• Avoid industry specific pitfalls
• Budget while on a fluctuating income
• Develop creative ways to build an emergency fund
• Take your financial temperature
• Build your path to financial freedom

Barbara Sloan, a lifelong SIP turned personal finance expert and money coach, is the driving force behind this powerful guidebook. She spent 20 years working in almost every possible tipped position across the country. She has made endless financial mistakes and learned lots of hard lessons, but it was only after working on Wall Street, running her own multi-million dollar company, and helping the wealthiest individuals plan their biggest budget items did she see all of the ways that tipped workers are left out of the wealth building world.

Whether you plan to be a lifelong service worker or are only here for a short time (and a good time), you can create the strongest financial footing while in the least suspecting of places.
