Listened to this as an audiobook 🎧 great explanations on everything finance especially as a beginner.

[Reuben Sam · Rating 5 out of 5]

I was expecting some advice but this book made me realise how the smallest things Financially can make a great impact onto someone life.
The book is really easy to read, pleasant and fun without neglecting the importance of going straight to the point and providing practical examples.
Investments, Generational wealth, Property ladder. It is so relatable because not only gives you the financial education of a UK economic system but as well he is able to picture the struggles of an immigrant community that has a very small financial knowledge.

I really enjoyed it and I would recommend it to everyone that wants to start to improve their financial literacy

[Bertram · Rating 5 out of 5]

Long-term results are born of long-term habits and Emmanuel breaks them down into behavioural practices that are easy to understand and apply NOW, not down the line. He walks through more intricate investigating terminology but not before directing the reader the reader in the foundation that they'll need to build that worth to their employer, that would generate the opportunity to invest and decide their future. It isn't often you come across a book that could be impactful to a father and a son in equal measure.

Humble yourself
Embrace the message
Put into practice

An interesting read from a unique point of view rarely shared from the humble beginnings of a council estate.

While the book covers the very basics of financial literacy I do feel the book exceeds in communicating to the inner city person who needs a crash course in money decisions. The simplicity and phrasing of the advice is paired with real life stories.

The only criticism would be the lacking of details in certain to get the ball rolling. It is mostly up to the reader to read more and make a start.

[Darron · Rating 2 out of 5]

Very basic and heavily padded with ‘Let me tell you a story…’ and long winded explanations, a much better book to read is “What They Don't Teach You About Money” by Claer Barrett or/and “The price of money” by Rob Dix

[Lewis Hastie · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an essential read for anybody who struggles to budget, save or invest, doesn’t feel they understand how finances work, or wants some guidance on what they should be doing with their money.

Delivered in plain English, with some inspiring stories and hard truths, reading this is a huge leap towards financial freedom

[Rad Vile · Rating 2 out of 5]

More of a motivation book than a finance one. Lots of stories but no actual details and how to work with them.

[InspirEnrich · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great finance book regardless of your life experience.

4.5

[Rachel Emanuel · Rating 2 out of 5]

Good explanations and a very brief understanding of basic finance. I learnt a few things. However, it’s coming from the assumption that I’m spending thousands of pounds a month on unnecessary spending, which I’m not. I wanted to read this book in order to help me with our current small budget and how we can make what we have grow. The answer he gives to this is to increase your income but with no real talk about how. Again, basic starting points for those with no financial knowledge but if you want something deeper, look for another book.

[Hayley · Rating 4 out of 5]

I appreciate this book. I wasn't taught a thing about money growing up in a council house with parents on benefits and in debt. I have learnt a lot and I thank Eman for making it simple, easy to read and understand and covering everything.

Really accessible to read and to refer to again and again.
