I was so glad to find this book! As an entry-level reader on Financial learning, I was a bit hesitant to dive into a financial guide but this book made it so much easier. The language is easy to comprehend and there are plenty of examples to explain each concept. I was pleasantly surprised to learn about how to make wiser decisions when it comes to investing and managing my finances. It also contains excellent advice about credit, taxes, budgeting, and more. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an approachable guide to money and investing basics.

I love short reads

This book acts in a way where you can read a chapter every morning or night, great if you’re busy. Maybe about half of the book was knowledge I’ve found in other books, but the end chapters gave me ideas I haven’t yet learned.

Quick and interesting read.

This is a quick read and gives insights on personal finances. I’m definitely going to have my children and younger family members read this book. The resources at the end of the book are a great touch to have all the information in one place.

The information in this book was appropriate for a beginner’s book. I was expecting better writing with less grammatical errors.

Insightful

Great as a refresher or as a first time investor. You can tell Alfonso Giacomucci pulls from a lot of different areas to really give you a solid foundation. Thank you!!
