The Singles Tax: No-Nonsense Financial Advice for Solo Earners
Coming January 2026
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, Renée 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.
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.
But personal action is only the beginning. With the collective power of millions of solo earners, we can use the momentum from this growing awareness to create a movement that challenges outdated policies and demands systemic change from all levels of government.
Whether it’s advocating for fairer tax treatment, inclusive retirement benefits, or recognizing single households in housing and zoning policies, this is our opportunity to make noise, build alliances, and push governments to finally keep the needs of single people in mind. The Singles Tax is more than a book, it’s a rallying point for financial equity.
Join us in building something bigger. If you’re ready to turn awareness into action, let’s connect and organize. This is the start of a national movement and we need voices like yours. Sign up to stay informed, share your story, and help shape an organization that puts solo earners on the policy map.
