Being an artist or creative does not mean you are allergic to money—in fact, learning how to handle money can be fun and rewarding. Authors who are comfortable with their financial situation are more likely to keep writing and producing great work.
Our friendly financial translator, author Erin Lowry, will equip you with fresh insights on how to take control of your financial life. We’ll discuss how your emotional relationship to money can cause psychological blocks and how to break through them. We’ll hear an overview of re-thinking your financial approach, creating new budget strategies for the new year, and how to pick better financial products that suit your needs. Bring your questions for the Q&A, and expect real talk with actionable advice.
Erin Lowry is the author of the four-part Broke Millennial series, including: Broke Millennial, Broke Millennial Takes On Investing and Broke Millennial Talks Money and her soon-to-be-published Broke Millennial Workbook: Take Control and Get Your Financial Life Together. Erin’s been featured in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and on CBS Sunday Morning, CNBC and The Rachael Ray Show. She has written for The New York Times, USA Today, and is a columnist for Bloomberg Opinion.
