In Old Money, New Woman, author Byron Tully provides powerful insights and wit-soaked wisdom to help you make the most of your money and improve the quality of your life.

Revealing eight "old money secrets" for women, the author shares time-tested tips and step-by-step strategies used by the women of America's upper class, generation after generation.

From education and etiquette to cosmetics and clothing, this must-listen book details the coveted, rarely-discussed fundamentals that any woman can use to achieve financial independence, discover her personal style, and make the most of every opportunity. Exercises will help you understand where you are in life, improve your decision-making process, and identify illusions that may be holding you back. And that's just the beginning....

The author also profiles "Exemplars", women who made extraordinary contributions to our world and culture, including: Coco Chanel, the French fashion icon who made her career comeback at the age of 73; Madame Curie, the Nobel Prize-winning scientist who discovered and harnessed X-ray technology; and Princess Diana, whose charisma and will brought global attention to the AIDS epidemic. Included as well is a celebration of "First Ladies", trailblazers who were the first women to accomplish great things in science, politics, sports, and business.

With 18 chapters full of eye-opening information and life-changing inspiration, Old Money, New Woman is an audiobook and a guidebook - a "life manual" packed with effective tools, enlightening examples, and soul-searching questions only you can answer - all with one goal in mind: to help you make it in the modern world.

Overall, this book is a great mix of how-to and why. It gives very insightful information about the paths of great intellectuals that happen to be women. It also guides you on the start of your path to become an icon like these women.

The performance wasn’t bad but it’s wasn’t spectacular either. There are times where the speaker is unintelligible, maybe due to mispronunciations. But for the most part, I enjoy having a woman narrate this book, as it helps drive home the points.

The advice in the book is priceless, from the “children when you’re ready” talk down to the quality of clothing you should buy when starting out.

An insightful read

Really enjoyed this; very straightforward, blunt and encouraging. He gives very efficient advice and suggestions and you can see he wants to better things for women instead of making himself seem better or more knowledgeable than them.

Very good advice and very motivating

I was quite biased against the book because of the negative reviews. I thought I could always return it if I found it was giving bad advices. Unexpectedly, I really enjoyed this book. In fact, I believe that I will be listening to it many more times in the future.

Education, and the opportunities it provides, career moves, how to prioritize our finances, shopping habits, personal grooming, deportment, poise and many more.

Here are a few of my takeaways-
The author starts the book by explaining that most old money women follow a pretty well defined path. He explains the motivations behind this choice, encouraging the reader to do the same. I really liked this part, if a system is already working, why waste energy on finding a new one!
The author views parenthood as a responsibility, he explains that women are usually the primary care givers, so it might (will) have a huge impact on our lives. Therefore, it must be properly planned.
He advocates for education, not just for you, also for your children and grandchildren. Cut costs on other areas in order to get the best education. This portion made me feel like I was listening to my own father.
He suggests buying good quality only, and discourages impulse purchases. Essentially, "I am too poor to buy cheap" (paraphrasing).
Instead of spending, prioritize investing. Financial independence - he spends a good portion of the book discussing this.

The author is not a fan of tattoos. If you feel very strongly about it, you might not like what he has to say about it.

Overall, this book is a like a cheat sheet on strategies for a good life. I will gift this to my nieces when they become teens.

Overall good points for someone who is truly wanting to revamp themselves as a lady of society, with poise and pursue personal achievements. Ultimately, I found the section towards the end most interesting learning about female exemplars. The reader voice is very robotic, it would’ve been a more pleasant experience with a real voice.

Light read

The narration isn’t great. Too robotic. The author spends an exorbitant amount of time trying to convince readers (women) not to have children, and implies motherhood is Inconvenient or a burden. I stopped reading, why should a man tell this to women?!

No

Probably would have been fine with a good narrator but the voice is so dull you want to fall asleep

Meh...would have been fine with a good narrator
