angelal 's review for:
To be clear, when Schlesinger says "smart people" she actually means "rich people." The lowest income clients Schlesinger discussed included a single mother of three making 150k a year selling Jaguars and a teacher making 100k with a husband bringing home a salary twice that.
That said, this book is super readable and does a good job of covering a bunch of different concerns. I found this book valuable in identifying lists things I should probably be thinking about (types of insurance and the different documents you need when creating a will for example). For the most part, it made me feel more comfortable in the financial decisions I'm already making. If your financial life includes a sneaking suspicion that you're doing something profoundly wrong, this book is probably worth a read. I certainly found it helpful and reassuring. If you're new to the personal finance space, I would recommend starting with something like Worry Free Money instead. And definitely go in knowing that at one point Schlesinger will assume you are making too much money to be eligible for an IRA.
