Editorial Reviews

I believe that not only people who suffer from depression would benefit from reading this book, but anyone who struggles to overcome mental health challenges in the pursuit of financial fitness.

Shannon McLay

This is a one-of-a-kind book produced by a one-of-a-kind author. As a depressive with chronic fatigue, Abigail Perry didn't just research her subject – she lived it. She got tired of being scolded by finance experts whose advice simply didn't apply to her situation. Through trial and error Perry developed realistic workarounds both for daily living and long-term goals. Her brand of 'imperfect frugality' can help you cut through exhaustion, shame and fear to build a life that works.
