This book was a good read. While the information presented in the book was informative and helpful, it was nothing I haven’t heard before as someone with some financial literacy. However, if you don’t have any financial literacy, this is a great introduction to the finance world in a digestible and accessible way. Overall, the book provided some good financial reminders that I think everyone should read all the time.

Primarily talks about living within your means and not hankering after too much. Also, advocates that the market is highly unpredictable and hence to make wealth, start early and stay with the ups and downs. It is less about making large amounts of money and more about how to live within your means.
A lot of the advice applies to a credit driven, "live-in-the moment and dont worry about the future" kind of society.
Good book overall.

I loved this book, they only reason it took me so long to finish was I didn’t have the emotional strength to let go of it. I couldn’t get enough of it.
