The Survival Years Guidebook: Welcome Home to Your Money Plan

The Survival Years Guidebook is an empathetic, practical financial roadmap designed to help adults navigate life's biggest, most disruptive money moments with zero judgment and steady guidance. Written in a warm, comforting tone by Auntie B, this guide acts as a personal financial first-aid kit for complex life transitions—such as marriage, welcoming a baby, buying a home, changing careers, facing job loss, or going through a divorce.

Rather than serving as a dry textbook, the guide provides clear, actionable steps to audit your finances, protect your credit, manage major expense shifts, and rebuild stability. Packed with plain-English translations of complex financial terms, emergency budget templates, interactive worksheets, and step-by-step checklists, it equips readers to stop operating in survival mode and build long-term financial security.
