Most people stress about money. Ninety-nine percent of Americans have less than $1 million in assets, and few feel they have a source of reliable, independent financial counsel.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. Alexa von Tobel, CFP® and founder and CEO of LearnVest.com─an award-winning personal finance platform─believes that managing your money doesn’t have to be scary, stressful, or complicated. And she doesn’t believe that financial planning should be just for the 1 percent.

In Financially Fearless: The LearnVest Program for Taking Control of Your Money, von Tobel offers a new approach to financial planning that is all about taking action. It covers three critical areas of your financial life:

1. Where you, and your mindset, are right now: The way you think about your money truly matters.

2. Your 50/20/30 Program: The percentage breakdown of how your take-home pay should be spent each month.

3. How to protect yourself: From life, from others, and from yourself.
