About this listen

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

As seen on ITV's This Morning! A life-changing 10-week plan to help you to turn your life around and design a path to financial freedom, enriched with the small experiences that bring you joy.

Stop worrying about money. Start enjoying your life.

You might be struggling in debt, living paycheque to paycheque, or worried about preparing for retirement; maybe you're considering your first investment, or you just want an escape plan from the '9 to 5'. Wherever you are on your journey, this book will revolutionize your lifestyle and your relationship with money.

Authors Ken and Mary Okoroafor started out as resource-poor, working-class immigrants and have built a life of financial independence and joyful moments through hard work, smart saving and savvy investing. They know what it feels like to start from ground zero, and as a chartered accountant and former CFO, Ken shares his financial expertise to help you unlock the secret to building wealth.

You'll learn how to take control of your finances, develop good money habits, become debt-free, invest in assets and multiply your income so you can create the freedom to travel, spend time with your loved ones and plan for a stress-free (early) retirement - all whilst prioritising your wellbeing and having fun!

It also includes a dozen real-life interviews with singles, couples and those with children, from different backgrounds, age groups and stages of their money journey, including a few well-known public figures.

Financial joy can be achieved by anyone - and it can start today, not tomorrow.

'The book that's been missing from this genre. A joy to read and learn from.' - Cait Flanders, bestselling author of THE YEAR OF LESS and ADVENTURES IN OPTING OUT

'A book to savour' - JL Collins, author of the international bestseller The Simple Path to Wealth

In all honesty, the book spent some time on things I already know and things I can do a quick Google on to understand and move on to the next thing.

However, the problem there is that Google is a big place and no matter how organised my bookmarks are, they always become a "cupboard of doom" (we all have one of those at home) where you cannot find something important quickly despite saving it.

This book provides me with a framework that I can repeatedly lookup and then use Google to find a provider for whichever service I am looking for.

I will be listening to this over and over.

it inspired me in how to plant seeds of financial wisdom in my wife and kids.

It reminded me that life is also for living not just planning planning planning.

Thank you Ken and Mary for your hard work and for producing something that triggered up and down emotions but in the end up. WAY UP

Financial Joy — oh my days! The personal stories were so impactful, they almost brought me to tears. Thank you, Ken and Mary, for including that part — it really resonated with me. After listening to it, I was inspired to message my mom and dad, encouraging them to get health insurance. Thank you for that encouragement and the courage to write this book.

This book is incredibly helpful. I love the 10-week structure — it’s practical but not overwhelming. I've been following your journey for almost 6–7 years, and everything you've written addresses so many important points and details. The balance you've achieved is remarkable, and the element of joy you've woven into the book makes it even more powerful.

This is a fantastic book. Well done, both of you! You've set a high standard, and I’m definitely hoping for more in the future. The storytelling, the guidance — everything about it is just so well done. Highly recommended!
