Praise for 10 things I hate love about money

"Mat's book is great for anyone beginning their careers. It avoids jargon and complex theories. In its place there is practical and unique advice that is easy to start doing immediately."
--ARTHUR SCULLEY, Retired Managing Director, JPMorgan

"I wish I had read this book as a younger adult. Really insightful intuitive information that will give you the freedom to live with fewer financial worries. It's a black belt masterclass in simple to digest finance!"
--JONATHON PURSSEY, Founder Core Judo, British & Commonwealth Champion Judoka

"Many of us, me included, push ahead in our life and careers without stepping back to get a clear sense of our financial circumstances. Mat does a brilliant job of defining "financial circumstances" with simple metrics like a DON - Daily One Number - a net balance of our daily income and expenditures. And for those of us who are not on the top of our financial game, this is an insightful and practical playbook for turning things around! It's a nice read that I highly recommend."
--RAYMOND DUCH, Senior Research Fellow and Co-founder of the Nuffield College Centre for Experimental Social Sciences, University of Oxford

"This book changed my life! With clarity, warmth, and practical insight, Mat demystifies financial anxiety and empowers readers -- young and old alike -- to take control of their money. From everyday spending choices to long-term planning, his expert yet friendly voice guides you toward a healthier relationship with money. This isn't just a financial guide -- it's a toolkit for improving both your financial well-being and peace of mind. An absolute must-read, no matter your age or financial status."
--DR BETH MOSLEY MBE Consultant Clinical Psychologist & Author

"Money may not buy happiness, but its unwise management can and often does lead to great stress and unhappiness. Mat's book focuses on an aspect of money management that does not receive anywhere the amount of attention it should: the prudential management of one's personal expenses. A systematic presentation, accompanied by compelling anecdotes and examples, takes one through the why, what and how of this topic; there are valuable lessons in here for the young, of course, but also, I would think, for adults of all ages."
--RAGHU SUNDARAM, Senior Vice-Chancellor and Head of Global Strategy New York University and Dean Emeritus Edward I. Altman Professor of Credit & Debt Markets and Professor of Finance NYU Stern School of Business
