We were very lucky to have such a clear minded, pragmatic, and soulful writer/teacher. I started reading his books to improve my financial literacy, only to be taught how to live a meaningful and valuable life. I will miss this man I never met, but learned so much from. This book is such a bitter sweet goodbye letter to all of us.
