When Jennifer Risher joined Microsoft in 1991, she met her husband and with him became an extra-lucky beneficiary of the dot-com boom. By their early 30s, they had tens of millions of dollars. Today, there are millions of people like her.

Jennifer’s thought-provoking, personal story includes the voices of others in her demographic and explores the hidden impact of wealth on identity, relationships, and sense of place in the world.

At a time when income inequality is a huge problem, our country’s economic system is broken, and money is still a taboo subject even among those closest to us, this engaging, introspective memoir is essential listening: a catalyst for conversation that demystifies wealth and inspires us to connect.

She was honest about feelings, how money can change people and the problem with not talking about money with others. I love how much she got in to donating and getting other wealthy people to do the same.

I enjoyed hearing about becoming rich and how to become comfortable with it. I also enjoyed how she navigated creating community and being able to brainstorm some of their ideals around how to talk about with their children.
