  <default_description>Over 3 Million Copies Sold&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A Personal Finance Classic that Changed Forever How We Think, Feel, and Act about Money&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ten years ago, Suze Orman, America&amp;#8217;s most celebrated finance expert, transformed the way we all view personal finance with her groundbreaking &lt;i&gt;The 9 Steps to Financial Freedom&lt;/i&gt;. This &lt;i&gt;New York Times&lt;/i&gt; bestselling blockbuster broke from the ranks of traditional money management books by looking at finances from an entirely new perspective, advising people to approach money from an emotional standpoint in order to achieve their financial dreams. By emphasizing the psychological and spiritual power money has in our lives, while still including information on all aspects of our financial daily activities, Orman has helped millions break through the barriers that hold them back. She is now our country&amp;#8217;s leading personal finance expert, and here is the book that started it all.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Orman is back in a brand-new, fully updated edition to &lt;i&gt;The 9 Steps to Financial Freedom&lt;/i&gt;, her personal finance classic that offers thoughtful, easy-to-follow steps toward a life of financial freedom. Here is the most up-to-the-minute information on a wide range of financial topics that plague us today: credit card debt, bankruptcy, paying for education, wills versus trusts, the best retirement account, life insurance, and more. Combining real-life recommendations with Suze&amp;#8217;s own brand of inspiration and motivation, this is the only guide you&amp;#8217;ll need to provide for yourself and your family.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As Orman shows, managing money is so much more than a matter of balancing your checkbook or picking the right investments. It&amp;#8217;s about redefining financial freedom and realizing that you are worth far more than your money. Let America&amp;#8217;s leading personal finance expert show you how.</default_description>
