I've been looking for personal finance books more relevant to Ireland lately. The ones I read so far are good but once things go past "live within your means" the advice tends to assume a tax and legal landscape that is very US-centric. This book is probably the closest I'll ever find: the author is Irish, worked in the Irish financial industry for decades and all the examples are either based on the UK or Ireland. There's a lot of advice similar to what you'll find in Rich Dad, Poor Dad, down to "this is what rich kids learn" quotes, and the same scorn towards savings, but all in all I found the ideas interesting and challenging.

One of the best books to read for a person starting his/her financial freedom journey. The author gives authentic advice about all aspects of your finances. I first read it when I was 17 at the British Council Library and loved it so much that I had my relative buy one in the US for me. (I live in India and it is unavailable here). The only con was that the book has examples specific to the UK/Ireland and of little use in my particular region. Still I would highly recommend reading this book as all other concepts are relevant.
