This book is definitely not written for an Asian guy who lives outside of the United States. However, I enjoyed reading this book and digesting the ideas that it imparted.

There is a beauty in the way that this book is written for the author's daughter. It made the book easier to comprehend and felt like a conversation instead of something like a textbook reading chore. The structure of the novel also gave a steady sort of trajectory with what you're currently trying to digest. It made the entire novel simple and easily understandable.

Overall, this book was such a helpful novel and despite being written for an American audience, I was able to take the knowledge of their ideas and break it down into a concept that might work in my own country. I highly encourage people who're trying to find their way to being a financial literate in picking this book up.

A very useful and easy-to-understand basic financial guidebook for those just entering adulthood (or adults who have questions about things they never learned). Ursu provides what could be dry information with a good sense of humor and clear understanding, making these topics unintimidating. I would've appreciated a bit more direction with the estate planning section: it's great to know what documents you need and what they are (like a will, a trust, and a medical directive), but how does he recommend you go about creating them?

It is a book about self finance. There are many books.
But it is definitely different.
It is simple to read and understand.
It doesn't target to make you an economist.
But it targets economically illiterate young people and tries to give them most basic information about managing self finance.
Author is certified financial planner and still acts like a nursery teacher teaching naive learners.
It is a very good book to start your financial training.
I recommend it to every young person coming out of college gate.
It may sound little conventional advice at it stresses need of savings and frugal life, but that principle has stood test of time as most foolproof way to secure finances.
Thanks netgalley and publisher for review copy.
