Booklets to help talk about money
These colorful, compact booklets can help you talk with people about money topics that are important to them. Each booklet includes a selection of simplified tools from the Your Money, Your Goals toolkit—all focused on a common financial stressor.
Getting started with the booklets
- Order free booklets and we'll mail them to you.
- Make copies of the tools before using the booklet with someone. The tools fold out to a letter-sized black-and-white page to make photocopying easy and convenient. That way, you can write on the copies and they keep them once you're done.
- Download the professional print file to have more copies printed at your local print shop.
