The Person Who Controls Your Money Controls Your Life.
Shouldn't That Person Be You?
Does a partner or relative manipulate you for financial gain or bully you into unwanted financial arrangements?
Have you lost money, property, trust, or confidence because of their actions?
Do you feel trapped and powerless because you depend on them for support?
Almost all couples and families argue about money because it's a natural, normal part of negotiating our wants and needs. But no one should use controlling or coercive behavior to violate your rights and freedoms.
If you've lost financial control to someone else, you are likely a victim of financial abuse.
Monty has witnessed the pernicious effects of financial abuse in the home. He will show you how to recognize abuse and recover your freedom, power, and dignity.
Financial abuse is the most unrecognized, unreported, and unchallenged form of abuse, and it can affect anyone. Victims aren't always aware of what's happening when someone tries to maintain power and control over their access to financial resources. Even when they are aware, they're usually too afraid or ashamed to talk about it. And if they do feel strong enough to reach out, they often don't know who to talk to.
That's all about to change.
In My Money, My Life, My Way you will:
- Realize that you're not alone in your suffering. You'll find hope, help, and healing.
- Discover why abusers are most often the people who say they love us.
- Understand the many forms of financial abuse and why victims tolerate it.
- Learn to read the signs and symptoms of financial abuse and act promptly.
- Get invaluable advice on how to recover your financial identity and independence.
You'll get clear answers to important questions such as:
- What is financial abuse? How do you recognize it, challenge it, and escape it?
- Why do people commit abuse? What are their traits and motivations?
- What's the link between financial abuse and other forms of domestic abuse?
- Why do victims continue to suffer abuse even after separation or divorce?
- Where can victims of financial abuse find help, support, and legal assistance?
- Why are elders particularly susceptible to neglect, isolation, and financial abuse, and what can be done to protect them?
Valuable answers to these important questions and more will help you rebuild your life, protect your assets, and secure your future.
In this clear, no-nonsense guide, you will learn something few people talk about because it typically remains hidden behind a veneer of seemingly normal relationships. You will get the help, advice, and confidence you need to safely recover control and reclaim your independence.
If you're not experiencing financial abuse yourself but know a friend or relative who is, remember that they may not get the chance to read a book like this. They're likely spending their precious time and money coping with the extreme circumstances in which they live. You'll find this book enlightening and empowering so that you can be the help they need.
If you're a support worker or professional advisor, this book is for you too. It will give you the tools and confidence you need to act so that a victim of financial abuse no longer has to suffer in silence while you stand by and watch in silence. It's time to give this insidious issue the attention and exposure it needs by sharing the best available resources, including ones you'll find inside.
