Book Synopsis

No matter how young you are or where you're starting from, you are a future millionaire. Declare it. Know it. Demand it. And, with help from bestselling author and self-made millionaire Rachel Rodgers, start working toward it. Future Millionaire is filled with insights on how to develop the right mindset and build smart money habits that will allow you to follow your dreams, build your wealth, and maximize your potential.

Rachel Rodgers--author of We Should All Be Millionaires and creator of her own eight-figure business--knows what it's like to be broke. She also knows what it's like to rise above your circumstances and radically change your future. Now, in her first book for young adults, Rodgers empowers readers 13 and up to do the same.

Future Millionaire unpacks all the financial concepts you never learned about in school, like creating a budget, managing debt, investing your savings, and more. Rachel also discusses how to think like a millionaire--creating a healthy money mindset, boundaries, and goals--and act like a millionaire, using your money to support causes that you believe in and upending systems that favor the 1% over marginalized communities.

You'll also learn how to:

• Reframe negative, self-sabotaging thoughts so you can pave the way for future success
• Invest in yourself by practicing self-care, establishing healthy boundaries, and upgrading your everyday life
• Create a budget, tackle debt, and start investing so you can see your money grow
• Use your money to achieve your dreams and make a difference in the world around you
