Me acerqué al libro por la portada, y se que esa no es una buena razón. Debo decir que también me interesa la temática hace unos cuantos años, pero principalmente lo leí por su portada y porque Caitlynn Da Silveira (booktuber-instagramer) lo recomendaba.
Me sorprendió ampliamente que no era un libro "no-ficción" iba con esa idea y me sorprendió encontrar una historia ficticia, sin embargo ésta era super chata, los personajes no tenian más desarrollo que el de demostrar la idea del ahorro y el interés compuesto para lograr y proponernos metas. Es un libro nada impresionante y que me deja un sabor agridulce, como si algo le faltara.

This would have been more insightful or enlightening to me in my twenties, and perhaps that's the audience it was written for.

Overall enthusiastic and positive. Suitable for when you're having a bad day and questioning your financial choices. Now! if it's accurate or not I can't tell since I don't live in the US or am able to use interest since it's forbidden in Islam. Maybe with some slight changes, one can dream of actually reaching certain financial freedom.

Mixed feelings about this one. Any financial
book that begins with the assumption that I buy coffee out every morning, buy my lunch every day, spend $7 on a juice ever or pay for cable is going to mostly annoy me for awhile. There were some good points, but nothing all that new to me. I'm certainly glad I borrowed the audiobook from the library and didn't pay for this. It did inspire me to take another look at the budget tomorrow so I guess that's good? *shrugs*

This book will not be for everyone. It is written in a very different style and it can easily be misunderstood as a rich guy telling everyone else what to do. That said, some of the underlying messages of this book have stuck with me. It is told as a parable almost or a fictional story where a barista explains to a younger adult how to fix her money woes. It does not tell you to skip coffee everyday which was refreshing from a money book. It is a good book to get people thinking about their money habits and why they are doing what they are doing with their careers. It gives a sliver of hope to anyone who is in debt or not good with money that they too can fix their financial situation. This would be a good book for someone in their early 20s to read. It is short and easy to get through. I read it in an afternoon all in one go.
