So how did one graduate pay off six-figure student debt and create the life of her dreams It turns out, it takes a little more creativity. In Buy the Avocado Toast, millenial debtor-turned-success story Stephanie Bousley shares her journey to financial freedom and a treasure trove of unconventional ideas to help you do the same! With some out-of-the-box thinking, a few calculated risks, and a whole lot of faith in yourself, you can rid yourself of the burden of student debt and, more importantly, crush those feelings of failure that so often accompany it. You are not your debt! You deserve the life you want if you have the courage to create it.

Reviews

"Stephanie's book lies at the heart of a central problem in Americaand it's not just financial. Millenials are mired in student debt and can't find well-paid jobs that allow them to pay rent and interest on the loans. This has bred mental health problems and an opioid epidemic among those stuck at home who are 21-29. It suppresses the housing market and taxes our mental health system. Something needs to be done. Steph's book is a great start."

-Paul Schulte, founder of Schulte Research and author of AI Quantum Computing in Finance Insurance

"Part financial self-help, part personal development, this book takes a radical look at the student debt crisis and offers fresh, out-of-the box ideas on how to conquer six-figure student loan debt."

- Caroline Allen, author of the award-winning Elemental Journey series: Earth, Air, and Fire


"This book provides a pathway and great practical approach for many people faced with painful student debt. A true testimonial from someone who has personally lived through this experience."

"Love it. A real book by a real person addressing a real problem in real life. Useful insights on how to have a different perspective on one's real (and perceived) problems. "

- Clint Spurgeon, former CFO of Apple Japan

"Bousley discusses many aspects of your financial life to make it the best and easiest guide possible. She has lived on both sides of the coin and knows how to lead you in the right direction.
I enjoyed reading Bousleys advice for becoming debt-free quicker, or at least quicker than I would have before learning some new tricks. She includes many tips for making more money, buying a home, finding legitimate side-jobs, and realizing that your debt should not define you. I like that she made this not just about making more money, but also about learning to love yourself through anything and increasing your self-worth. Her advice is realistic and easy to execute."
-Rachel Dehning, Tulsa Book Review
