Before you post

• Put your own book page wherever a caption says [your link]. Open your TheMoneyBooks website, go to the book page for How Money Works for Special Needs Families, and copy the address, or use the Copy URL button on Your Book Page.
• Keep statistics and quotes exactly as written, with their source. Don't crop or edit the images.
• Keep the education-only line at the end of every caption.
• If you shorten or rewrite a caption, by hand or with an AI tool, don't add promises like “will,” “guarantee” or “qualify for benefits.”
• Instagram: links in captions aren't clickable, so put your link in your bio too. Stories: add a Link sticker in an empty area so it doesn't cover any text or the book cover.

Suggested order: post 1 (feed and story) whenever you announce the book. Then, about two a week: 9, 2 (story too), 5, 8, 3 (story too), 7, 4 (story too), 6.

Alt text: Headline: "Two lifetimes. One plan." Two simple line charts. The first, "Traditional X-Curve," runs from Marriage to Retirement: a yellow responsibility line falls while an orange wealth line rises, so the two lines cross.
