Pros & Cons
Pros
Super digestible tips. I suggest this if you’re not super money savvy yet. Tons of information and practical steps.
The goal is to make your current finances work for you and to set up your current self for success by avoiding debt traps and investing in yourself. Ramit's description of personal finance is not only helpful but realistic for *any* individual.
Ramit is fantastic at explaining concepts in a fun and engaging way. He covers everything from how to get out of debt, to what to do with money once you have no debt. Ramit hits it spot on.
Cons
The layout of the book seems very disorganized. The author writes like he is yelling at you the whole time. I understand some people are more financially literate than others.
