This book offers a practical introduction to personal finance with a focus on the experiences and needs of queer readers. Written by finance columnist Nick Wolny, it addresses common financial challenges, explores how social and cultural factors can influence financial behavior, and presents strategies for budgeting, saving, earning, and investing. The author outlines approaches for setting financial goals, managing spending, and building long-term stability, along with guidance on taxes, career development, and community support. Wolny combines financial information with personal accounts from queer individuals and discusses financial independence in the context of broader social and political conditions
