Margot's Got Money Troubles book review

I am raising a whole person with a man who's got a whole wife and kids. If I can figure that part out, I can figure this I can figure this out. So keep watching to find out what this mother did to change her life. Hey, y'all. This is Kyla Denanyoh, and we are talking all about motherhood, cam girls making $5,000 a week. So today, we're talking about the book, Margot's Got Money Troubles. The author of the book is Ruthie Thorpe. The book's genre is fiction. The theme of the book is literature. Okay? Y'all, this book is hilarious. 

I was looking for books about personal finance and money, and this book came up. Didn't know anything about it. I was like, oh, maybe it's like a fictionalized real story that's gonna help me create a budget. No. It is about taxes and how to pay them, but specifically if, for instance, your dad was a famous wrestler, so he knows about paying taxes quarterly. But it's also about drug abuse and nontraditional parenting and parenting your parents. Yes. 

There are spoilers in this video. So Margot ends up getting pregnant by her college professor, and she decides she wants to have the baby. She's so excited. Her excitement does not mean that there are not challenges. Right? She ends up with, like, this huge inheritance. So, like, okay. So I had a money problem, but now I have all this money. But money goes quickly. Right? And so then she realized that once it was time for her baby to go to day care, well, she didn't wanna be without her baby. And so, like, there's all these things and the story gets really, really complicated, but Marco decides that she needs to start making videos at home so that she can earn some money. I've been creating YouTube videos for the past three years. Going viral wasn't gonna be the marketing plan, but I still wanted it to happen. Margot did not have three years to try to make money. Okay? So she was like, well, I think I'll just try, like, OnlyFans. 

You know? There's some really cute videos of girls just wearing, like, you know, their bra and panty playing video games. Yeah. But, like, most of the accounts that do really, really big end up doing a little bit more than that. And what Margot truly found out was that she needed to create a network and a community so that people could share each other's videos and then she could get attention. And so Margot is a phenomenal businesswoman. I was learning so much even about quarterly taxes and why I needed to have a bookkeeper immediately. And so I love the book. Like, yes, it is very, funny. And even if you don't wanna become a cam girl, the word cam girl is kinda derogatory because that means someone who either is doing nudes or showing their whole body. That doesn't have to be the case. But in this case, whenever she would tell someone she was doing OnlyFans, they were like, oh, that must be what you're doing. I mean, she shows some skin, but, like, she got to actually realize what do I want in life. And she got to realize what do I need to do to stay home with my baby? I need to have a job that has me at home. Oh, I need to hire my dad to be the babysitter for my baby. 

I need to make sure my dad is safe while so that he can watch the baby, and then we can write scripts with my roommate, and then we can bring everyone in, and this can be like an entire community building business. Hilarious. And also genius and also so relevant for, like, life right now because this book literally is all about why content creation is a job. You have to 

1. Think of the idea,

2. Have the energy to make the idea,

3. Record the video,

4. Record any retakes,

5. Write a script,

6. Create or buy costumes, and 

7. Apply makeup. 

You have to do all this stuff. It is not unlike getting dressed and getting ready to go out to whatever job you want to do. There is prep. There is intention. There is effort. And the book really it was, like, validating. And the whole point and what I loved about this book is that Margot is saying, I can figure this out. Everything you do is about your kids. I don't care. As soon as you realize you're pregnant and you wanna be pregnant, everything you do is about your kid. I am raising a whole person with a man who's got a whole wife and kids. And, like, if I can figure that part out, I can figure this I can figure this out. And she does. Oh, and come on. This book is begging to become a movie. Begging! 

This book, the plot, the storytelling, the hilarity, it's gonna be a movie or miniseries. I'm looking forward to watching it. I don't know that this will become a movie, but I would like that to happen. Loved it. Okay. And I think everybody could, like, benefit and learn from it because Margot was teaching all of us because all of us have, like, money troubles to some extent, whether you have, too much or too little or excess or whatever. You could all learn from it. And I bet when you're learning from it, you're learning from content because content is king. So take a look at this book review here. I know you will absolutely love it. It's one of my favorites because I love to read and discuss books. Okay? So I will see you on the next one. 

Until the next book review, 

Kyla
