The Art Of Getting Paid

Following the steps outlined in this book will result in on-time payments, as agreed in advance for your products or services. Or, you can do business as usual and get paid later through a series of collection steps which may include a lawsuit and/or judgments. The goal is to get paid on time, so we will settle for just getting paid-on time, every time (title of my first book) in this new expanded version.

How many times would you like to be paid in a week, month or year? I hope you said as often as possible. The art of getting paid avails itself to much thinking, focused work and lots of creativity. We are not talking about any regular pay check here. I'm talking about money that an average job really can't pay you. If you really want to get paid then its real work that you have to do. This is why you should go to work after coming home from your job. Your Job and Your Work are usually two different things. Your job and your work could be separate. Usually, your current job is not your True Work. Are you going to work tomorrow or are you going to a job? Your job tells you how much you should make. Your gift and true work tell you to make as much as you want. If you really want to know the Art of Getting Paid, find your gift. Whatever you were created to become is not outside of you but on the inside of you.

“Humorous and forthright...[Gaby] Dunn makes facing money issues seem not only palatable but possibly even fun....Dunn’s book delivers.” —Publishers Weekly The beloved writer-comedian expands on her popular podcast with an engaging and empowering financial literacy book for Millennials and Gen Z. In the first episode of her “Bad With Money” podcast, Gaby Dunn asked patrons at a coffee shop two questions: First, what’s your favorite sex position? Everyone was game to answer, even the barista. Then, she asked how much money was in their bank accounts. People were aghast. “That’s a very personal question,” they insisted. And therein lies the problem. Dunn argues that our inability to speak honestly about money is our #1 barrier to understanding it, leading us to feel alone, ashamed and anxious, which in turns makes us feel even more overwhelmed by it. In Bad With Money, she reveals the legitimate, systemic reasons behind our feeling of helplessness when it comes to personal finance, demystifying the many signposts on the road to getting our financial sh*t together, like how to choose an insurance plan or buy a car, sign up for a credit card or take out student loans. She speaks directly to her audience, offering advice on how to make that #freelancelyfe work for you, navigate money while you date, and budget without becoming a Nobel-winning economist overnight. Even a topic as notoriously dry as money becomes hilarious and engaging in the hands of Dunn, who weaves her own stories with the perspectives of various comedians, artists, students, and more, arguing that—even without selling our bodies to science or suffering the indignity of snobby thrift shop buyers—we can all start taking control of our financial futures.
