As single living hits record highs, The Singles Tax offers actionable tips and expert insights to help solo earners build savings, retire confidently, travel wisely, and live comfortably.
When it comes to finances, single people can’t seem to get a break: whether that’s taxes, housing, retirement, or something as simple as a hotel room. With The Singles Tax, Ren?e Sylvestre-Williams uses her expertise as a financial journalist and a single person to explain how things got this way and what we can do to manage that tax, from personal finance strategies to pushing to change the tax code. Each chapter provides thought-provoking insights and answers questions such as: Why can’t two people just live together and be considered an economic unit? Can people get married to take advantage of the few tax benefits for couples? Will that lead to rom-com shenanigans? Can single people ever retire? Why did housing get so expensive, and are solo earners doomed to roommates? Do they need a will? Sylvestre-Williams also shares stories, trials, and triumphs from other singles and advice from financial experts on how to navigate the systemic disadvantages of singledom. Delivering friendly, battle-tested advice, The Singles Tax is the ultimate intersectional guide for single people who want to take control of their financial lives and build a secure financial future.Author: Renée Sylvestre-Williams
