As a brazilian this book is not that good. My mistake, I never tought that the financial system could be so different, so the tips the author give in wasn't so usefull for me. But it still is a very nice book about how to deal and face money problems. Makes you think about what is a Rich Life for you. It changed my midset about it and now I have my Rich Life settled, on the ground (not in the clouds), and I started to go for it. Started to build my Rich Life, thanks to the book.

I have a personal finance phobia. Finances scare me. I feel inept. Reading this book has freed me of all that. It is so educational. It is also an easy read. No complicated yada yada that bores the begeebers out of you. Conversational easy to understand sound advice. The author also has wonderful Youtube videos to check out. You won't regret buying this book.

"I Will Teach You to Be Rich" by Ramit Sethi is a practical guide to personal finance that is different from most self-help books on money. As someone who recently read several bestsellers in the personal finance genre, I found that they were mostly focused on mindset and philosophy about money. While these concepts are important, they don't provide practical guidance on how to make money and grow assets in real life. This is where Ramit Sethi's book stands out. He provides actionable steps that readers can take to achieve their financial goals, whether that's getting out of debt, saving for retirement, or building wealth. The book covers a range of topics, from creating a budget and automating finances to negotiating a higher salary and investing in stocks and real estate. What I appreciate about this book is that it's not just theoretical advice; Sethi gives concrete examples and templates for readers to use. For instance, he provides a script for negotiating a higher salary, a spreadsheet for tracking expenses, and a list of low-cost index funds to invest in. I also had the chance to watch Sethi's Netflix series based on the book, and it was mind-blowing to see how his suggestions and directions have changed the lives of so many people. His approach is not just about making more money, but about designing a rich life that aligns with your values and goals. Overall, I highly recommend "I Will Teach You to Be Rich" to anyone who wants to take control of their finances and build wealth. Congratulations to Ramit Sethi for sharing his knowledge with readers and empowering them to achieve financial freedom.

I’m going to continue to read this, but it’s basic & practical. No BS.. all legit content that is understandable to even the people who aren’t the most intellectual. It’s not above ‘normal people’s’ heads, in essence, like sometimes books of this nature can be. I’m not rich yet, and there aren’t any promises that come along with this book, but if you have the drive, the persistence & take all of these practices to heart. All of the advices and steps in this book, you’ll at least expand your income, even if it’s not a 7 figure income. 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ** I hope my review has been helpful 😊! **

I had little to no financial education growing up. Money knowledge and wealth building seemed so elusive and reserved for already rich people. For me this book distilled the most important money knowledge one needs. It’s a simple and fun book to read that feels conversational. Best of all it’s easy and doable. It’s a plan that honors you and your truth. It lets money be a neutral tool you wield to make your life more blissful all while taking care of your future self. You can save for retirement and hoard your hamsters or lattes, whatever floats your fantasy boot. Like anything in life a little bit of sacrificial discipline can give you delicious freedom. You just need to know where to work smarter and target your focus. Ramit delivers it in this book. My money legacy has dramatically changed since reading this book and doing the work. I wish I could give it a hundred stars.
