"An incredible, compelling read. It covers an
astonishing amount of ground with basic simplicity and good humor. A masterful
starting point for any investor. Tina Hay is a wizard."-Ben Stein,
economist, author, actor and commentator
A handy crash course in personal finance, Napkin Finance is the groundbreaking guide everyone needs to help them manage their money and feel more secure.

Surveys have found that two thirds of Americans can't pass a basic financial literacy test, and nine in ten believe personal finance should become a required high school course. Tina Hay understands the confusion. While attending Harvard Business School, she struggled to keep up with classmates-many of whom came from the banking world-when it came to understanding jargon and numbers-heavy concepts. Tina developed a visual learning strategy using sketches and infographics that helped her succeed in her studies and master even the most complex financial topics.
Since then, Tina founded Napkin Finance, a thriving company built on the concept of taking seemingly overwhelming topics-such as budgeting, investments, and retirement accounts-and turning them into simple, skimmable explanations. Now, she's synthesized the most important content into this personal finance handbook. Napkin Finance includes dozens of individual learning modules, on topics ranging from credit scores to paying off student loans to economics and blockchain.
The first illustrated guide that makes finance fun and accessible, Napkin Finance can help even the most numbers-phobic reader learn about complex financial topics without dying of boredom.

"Everyone agrees that the lack of financial literacy is a widespread problem. By creating a foundational book that is so engaging, so easy to understand, and yet also so informative, Tina Hay may have come up with a real solution." - Nouriel Roubini, Professor of Economics, New York University.

"With her recent book Napkin Finance, Tina Hay takes a decidedly more lively and lighthearted approach to this serious subject...Napkin Finance works as much because of its visuals as the words. The drawings make complicated subjects such as asset allocation, estate planning, and IPOs less imposing. There's also an element rarely found in the finance genre: humor. And could we ever use some of that now."
- Mark Pothier, Boston Globe
