Romance Your Finance


Book Description

This book is intended to be utilized as if it were a coach guiding you through the maze of personal financial literacy options available. The romantic parallelism is intended as an extra point of reference. It is ironic that these are two elements of life, romance and finance, that virtually everyone will deal with at some point. Not only do they not have traditional means of practical education, they are almost taboo to talk about even in polite conversation. Too many of us learn about these two important elements of life in a haply, catch as one can type of way. Everyone has had some form of a love life or dreams of having one. Everyone desires to be at least financially stable if not rich. The hope of this book is to illustrate a relationship between love life and financial life so that the reader can be even more inspired to improve their financial literacy, and perhaps spice up their love life too. It is often misquoted in the Bible when people say money is the root of all evil. It actually states the love of money. We emphasize the difference between the love of money and the use of money as a tool. We dont discount the importance of money in our everyday lives, therefore, the need for proper management of it, but we want everyone to understand the importance of other qualities in life such as character development, morality, and of course love. In other words, as important as money is, it is not everything. Money is a great tool, but a poor master. This book looks to change mindsets. We want to think that money is not the root of all evil . . . but living in poverty is evil when you can do better.

Financial Recovery

After healing her own unhealthy relationship with money, and transforming her financial disaster into prosperity and security, Karen McCall created a recovery program she has now used for more than twenty years to help individuals, couples, and businesses large and small. In the midst of her money troubles, she saw a need for something other than financial planners, accountants, and credit counselors. These experts could tell her what she should be doing differently, but she needed someone to help her understand the underlying causes of chronic, self-defeating overspending and credit card debt, underearning, and low or no savings. To save herself, she created practical, holistic tools that address these sources of pain and shame. McCall’s program supports people as they uncover their deep-seated attitudes about money; provides simple, step-by-step tools for healing areas of physical, emotional, and spiritual deprivation; and teaches skills and strategies for experiencing lasting personal and financial fulfillment even in the midst of economic challenges and reversals.

The Language of Romance Crimes


Book Description

Exploring the interplay of love, money and threat in romance fraud, this Element reveals how language is used to persuade, manipulate, and threaten without causing alarm. It provides the first empirical examination of criminal interactions-in-action that exposes and tracks the grooming process and manipulation techniques from first contact with the fraudster, to the transition between romance and finance, and requests for money and intimate images, before morphing into explicit threats and acts of sextortion. Through the use of a range of interactional methodologies and real romance fraud messages, a new type of criminality in the form of 'romance fraud enabled sextortion' is revealed. The insights contained in this work have clear implications for future directions of academic exploration and practitioner efforts to protect the public. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
