Your Money or Your Life
by Vicki Robin & Joe Dominguez
Nine steps to financial independence from two people who lived on little
The book followed a 1986 cassette-tape version of Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin's workshop and appeared in 1992. It lays out a nine-step program for transforming one's relationship with money and reaching financial independence. The steps came from the authors' own experience of living on a fraction of a typical household's spending, funding that lifestyle with interest from long-term Treasury bonds. Revised editions followed in 1998, 2008 and 2018.
