Synopses & Reviews
A 10th anniversary edition of Ramit Sethi's groundbreaking and bestselling personal finance plan for young adults. Sethi's practical approach is delivered in an irreverent, funny, no-B.S. style that inspires readers to do what he says. It is based on the four pillars of personal finance — banking, saving, budgeting, and investing — and the wealth-building ideas of personal entrepreneurship, but this new edition goes beyond, to detail what makes a "rich life."
“A unique voice on money, one singularly attuned to...his generation.” — San Francisco Chronicle
