Finance ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Budgeting for Beginners
M.L. Humphrey · 2022
🎙 Narrated by Not found — could not verify a credited audiobook narrator for this title.
63/100
👎 Skip It
Humphrey's real Wall Street and Wharton background gives this one actual credibility, and the focus on budgeting with irregular income fills a genuine gap most beginner guides skip over. One reader did note it may assume a bit more sophistication than a true first-timer has, and it skips tax filing entirely, so go in with that in mind — the narrator is unverified.
