Broke Millennial does a great job of presenting practical how-to money advice in a conversational way... The tone is one that makes you feel like, 'we're all in this together,' and not the typical talking to you like you're a kid that you often find in other books geared toward young adults.

This book is well worth its list price..It's the youthful perspective that makes this so refreshing. It's well-written and researched by a millennial for millennials... without the judgment, sarcasm and superiority we older folks too often convey when we talk to young adults about money.

My go-to personal finance book when I am working with millennials…. It’s filled with practical step-by-step instructions and guides that any twenty- or thirty-something can easily use to change their financial situation.

If you haven't quite got the hang of ‘adulting,’ follow Erin Lowry's spot-on, often funny financial advice. You'll be inspired by how she successfully sidestepped student loan debt, negotiated a 40% (yes, 40%!) raise, and managed to tackle a host of thorny money situations. Best of all, Erin reveals how you can do all this too. Broke Millennial is not your typical personal finance book. This is the wisdom I wish I had in my twenties and early thirties!

A new book about money that teens and millennials will actually read... This not only has great insights and tips about handling money, but it's written in a casual, relatable way.

Broke Millennial takes the typical preaching and finger-wagging out of money lessons and replaces them with humor, empathy and a fun, pick-your-financial-path twist, while offering helpful and practical advice to successfully navigate all the financial questions you’ll face in the real world.

It's a price worth paying to own a helpful book like Broke Millennial. Erin Lowry explains nearly everything consumers need to know about finances, in layman's terms and simple steps. Best of all, though it's meant for 20-somethings, this book isn't specific to them: you really can give it to a wise middle-schooler or a grownup in need of the info. For anyone old enough to read this book, Broke Millennial won't be a bust.

Erin is an extremely talented writer who has a knack for making personal finance topics relatable and interesting to a Millennial audience.

Erin…[makes] complicated financial concepts seem simple and accessible. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and her tips and tricks can make any Millennial love personal finance.

Erin is a talented writer who can boil down complex financial topics—from investing in the stock market to refinancing loans—in ways anyone can understand. Her advice speaks to a Millennial audience looking to improve their finances, and her tips help people of all ages find financial success.

Rich with specific advice to guidereaders on the path to financial wellness.Millennials who may be overspending because of #FOMO need to read this book stat!

The ultimate millennial guidebook on money matters…. I highly recommend it.

Thinking about money, especially when you don’t have much, can be painful. But Erin Lowry shows that you don’t need to be a mathematical genius to get on the right track. She makes it easy for people to build a financially healthy plan for life. Spend some time with this book, and your financial decisions and confidence will improve, no doubt.
