About the Author
A personal finance writer with over 20 years experience, Michelle Bowes has written countless articles explaining complex financial topics in easy-to-understand and engaging ways, and even more about gender inequality when it comes to money.
Michelle’s concerns about the lack of progress in women reaching financial equality and the number of grown women that still don’t feel knowledgeable or confident about money management inspired her to write this book. She believes the solution to overcoming the money challenges women face is for them to start learning about money – and putting good money habits in place – as soon as they start earning it, in their very first teenage job.
Her mission is to show all teenage girls that they can be Money Queens, by giving them the tips and tools they need to rule their money.
Michelle lives in Sydney with her husband and three kids, including two teenage daughters. This is her first book.
