I Will Teach You to Be Rich by Ramit Sethi

5.0

There's a lot of financial hokum out there and because we treat money management and financial matters as a taboo subject people never get sound advice. Moreover, financial management comes from our parents more often than it comes from school or society. Ramit takes this one step further and demonstrates how absurdly moronic it is to ignore your financial well being because you are scared, uninformed or intimidated. He walks people through six very easy, very basic steps to peace of mind and stability in managing your money.

The truth is, being rich has very little to do with massive amounts of money (okay, just a little to do with that). It has alot more to do with doing what you want, minimizing spending on the things that bring you no joy and automating it all so you don't worry about it.

This is right up there with Juliet Schor's "The Overspent American" as a must read for college students and twenty-somethings.
