Description: In "Psych Yourself Rich," TV's newest personal finance star shows how to develop the mindset, discipline, and spirit you need to build a strong financial foundation so you can grow wealth "on your own terms," without fear, anxiety, misery, boredom, or even advanced math! Farnoosh Torabi (as seen on NBC's Today Show, Yahoo! Finance, and SoapNet's" Bank of Mom & Dad) "combines the latest behavioral psychology with real attitude, without lectures! Psych Yourself Rich shows young professionals how to build a healthy view of money, investing, wealth, and aspirations. Torabi discusses how to get beyond "lend-and-spend" to a deeper, more holistic view of money, how to map out a plan of action that matches your needs and goals, and how to put that plan into action! You'll learn how to stop agonizing and start organizing; become your own biggest "money advocate;" assert yourself to stop getting ripped off by financial institutions; make your money count; build momentum; embrace an entrepreneurial spirit; and "get where you want to go, while others spend decades running in place.""

Is it even possible? Farnoosh Torabi has made a name for herself by dispensing advice – often to young people – about the ins and outs of financial management. Her work has been featured in places like The Street.com and the Today Show. What Torabi is talking about when she says “psych,” is a relatively new field of behavioral economics, wherein a person’s habits and psychology are studied to assess everything from spending patterns to risk aversion in determining their propensity for all things financial. While it’s doubtful that “Psych Yourself Rich” will truly make you rich (there is little or no space devoted to the kind of stock strategies, sophisticated real estate development or tax strategies that people use to get truly rich), what the book is useful for is laying out a plan to know where and why you spend what you spend and how to tighten up your finances to lay the foundation for a solid financial future. Torabi, a thirty something writer herself, doles out advice that seems primarily targeted to young people (twenty-somethings, first-time homebuyers, couples planning a first child) who need help in stopping their leaky budgets from getting the best of their modest to mid-level incomes. The author does a good job of researching trends and interviewing both financial and behavioral experts (Dan Airley is one of her favorite leaning posts), but this is still rudimentary stuff (Cut back on the Starbucks, pay off your high-interest credit cards first, etc.) The trouble comes in the use of the word “rich” as the advice contained here may help a $50k earner save ten or twenty percent of their income, but as far as creating the next Donald Trump, more sophisticated tomes are needed. Give this one to your recent college grad to send them off into the world. In that respect, it is worth it.
