Full title: Home Finances for Couples.

Additional title "Budget and Love on the Path to Financial Freedom."

I am attaching the file of the first 6 pages of the book and the table of contents so you can better understand what it is about.


Readers:

Ukrainian middle class, Millennial generation (20-34 years old)

The book helps to realize the importance of money in relationships, provides advice on family budgeting and investments in our realities.


The book will be available in both print and electronic formats, with a universal cover.

You need to create the main visual image that will convey the essence of the book even on tablet and smartphone screens and in online bookstores. This is the most important criterion!

In addition to the main image, the number of details, additional words, and the size of the main title are at your discretion.

The author's name (Lyubomyr Ostapiv) should be in small letters anywhere. My photo is not needed.

"The cover is being created for the first time."

The back of the printed edition does not need to be created yet; I will later ask you to do this with a clear brief.

A large PNG file for me, the source file from your professional publishing program.


Works that I like in terms of title, semantic connection to the content of the book, and cover design:

First of all, thank you all for the great interest and participation in the competition!!

There are more participants than I expected, so my wife and I will not be able to mark and comment on each work. I apologize, we will only mark those that we liked.

I will not respond to personal messages and works outside the competition on freelancehunt, as it is unfair to the participants who openly submit works to the competition.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

The piggy bank and dollar are extremely "overused" symbols that are used in many low-quality materials on personal finance. I am sure there can be better...

A family couple is better, but it should be pleasant in design and evoke an association with the theme of family finances on a smaller screen.

If you look closely at the best samples, the links I provided, you can see that the keywords from the title are clearly visible even in small size. In my case, the keywords are HOME FINANCES or BUDGET AND LOVE.

The book in no way contrasts love and budget, nor does it place them on different scales. It is about shared financial goals, a common family budget, values, and a person's attitude towards money, methods of saving and investing for Ukrainians. If you are seriously determined to win the competition, I kindly ask you to look at the top works I provided links to, read the text I included, and think about the images before submitting your work.
