This book makes money management easy for me。 I learned from just looking at it in the book store before buying it to emerge myself more home and it was the right decision to buy it。 I hope you would find it that way as well。

This book starts off with good promise, but is both too basic and not simple enough。 It is very accessible, with text that is striking and easy to read and graphs and illustrations。 However, none of the advice is groundbreaking, and the section on investing isn’t broken down enough for true beginners。 This guide is a good start for those starting on their financial journeys who feel intimidated by traditional tomes, but if you’re looking for in-depth information, look elsewhere。

Buku yang membahas tentang basic keuangan pribadi dan dijelaskan dengan cara ringan menggunakan infografis dan gambar yang bagus hanya disayangkan saja beberapa topik dalam buku ini tidak relate dengan kondisi yang ada di tempat saya tinggal di Indonesia seperti US Government Bonds, cara menghandle pencurian data probadi yang dimana di US sudah cukup baik sedangkan disini tidak dan beberapa masalah asuransi yang berbeda dengan kodisi di Indonesia。

Great for anyone who prefers visuals。 If you’re new to finance this Visual book is a great way to start understanding financials

Joanna

Very Helpful! Turns concepts into easy to understand with bullet point like accuracy - simple yet effective and a great resource。 Thanks!

Eric Carzon

Quick, simple, informative, love it, will pass on to my teens。

Quick reference to basic informationA good reference for those who need quick access and understanding to basic personal finance information。 The format is clear and easily digested。 Some of the information can become out-of-date such as tax rules that constantly change, so future readers are encouraged to fact check to be sure information on rules is current。

I didn't learn anything new from this book (I'm already a personal finance junkie), but I do think it would be great required reading for a high school or college finance class。 The information is presented in appealing, easy-to-digest infographics, which will hold the reader's attention。 However, don't expect any advanced advice here; the topics are pretty basic (401ks, buying a house, credit/debt, etc。)。 I didn't learn anything new from this book (I'm already a personal finance junkie), but I do think it would be great required reading for a high school or college finance class。 The information is presented in appealing, easy-to-digest infographics, which will hold the reader's attention。 However, don't expect any advanced advice here; the topics are pretty basic (401ks, buying a house, credit/debt, etc。)。 。。。more

The book is like other personal finance books but with good visual。

Basic, but greatThis book is great for those seeking a basic-to-intermediate education on personal finance! It provides enough information to convey the point。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 How to manage your own money is not something that common to teach in formal edication。 Yet it’s probably the most important thing to know for adults。To be honest this book is not quite applicable for me, a young adult who live in Indonesia。 People are not familiar with terms like credit score, tax refund, and so on。 It suggests you to hire a financial adviser which is something i don’t think most of young adult can afford to do so。 hack i don’t even know any person in my age who have financial How to manage your own money is not something that common to teach in formal edication。 Yet it’s probably the most important thing to know for adults。To be honest this book is not quite applicable for me, a young adult who live in Indonesia。 People are not familiar with terms like credit score, tax refund, and so on。 It suggests you to hire a financial adviser which is something i don’t think most of young adult can afford to do so。 hack i don’t even know any person in my age who have financial adviser。 hell even my parents, boss, colleagues dont have any financial adviser。 well at least, it is not common in my country。 But there are few things tho that i learn from this book, such as make sure to have stabile income and emergency fund ready before invest。 My favorite point from this book is that how to make sure that to have more money in the future is not by having more income but by saving and go easy on expense。 It’s a good book for young adult to learn about personal income, but just not to applicable in some countries。 。。。more

Advice presented simply using graphics。 Context is US so not applicable at times。

KG

Skimmed through this book before reading it and knew I wouldn’t be able to take it seriously when they suggested joining an MLM to pay off debt。 How did their editor let them get away with this egregious use of passive voice? “Essential concepts are discussed, including banking basics[。。。]。”

Cassie Jensen

Easy to read and understand unlike other dense personal finance books。

Ikhwan Hafiz

A good book for newbie。 Have abundance of rule of thumb to follow with。

Petya

It is nicely illustrated and the personal finance basics are well explained。 I live outside the US so a big part of the book wasn't really relevant for me - still liked it though!

Amy murray

I wanted to love this- I love books on personal finance and picked this up because I thought it might be a good gift for a recent college grad。 But the calculations on page 25-26 demonstrating compound interest are grossly inaccurate。 They state by saving $2,000 per year in a 401k beginning at age 25, at a 6% interest rate, you’d have $3。9 million at age 65。 It should be $2,000 a MONTH for the math to work- it’s a $10,000 per year difference!

Heather

This is a great visual primer on taking care of one’s financial life。 It’s basic, but thorough。 Unrelated to the content, the cover has a strange texture which may be unappealing to some people。

M。L。 Sexton

Comprehensive doesn’t even begin to describe what this book was。 It basically laid everything out in plan terms, and it helped me with reworking my budget and what debts to pay off first, totally rearranging my money。 Where was this book when I started my debt free journey a few years ago。 Can’t wait to read the others。

Melissa

This was a great, quick reference guide to overall personal finance。 I definitely got more out of the chapters on budgeting, spending, and debt/credit management。The last 2 on investing and housing did not help me much, as it was clear I need more help with the first three based on the chart at the beginning of the investing chapter to even consider them。I will consider looking into Michele Cagan’s more detailed guide on budgeting, though。

Ammar

In my opinion this book useful for your financial style in life from saving to investing and so on 。 Easy to understand , it’s for public with simple language backups with infographic to make it more easier。 I recommend it to everyone so they can be aware how to mange your money

Brad

Pretty basic intro to personal finance, might be an easy way for someone in late teens / early 20s without much exposure to get their feet wet。 Some good principles, but very basic and simple。 Nearly lost a star or two for recommending direct sales as a way to bolster income (aka MLM)。 Marked a couple pages about finding a good financial advisor and another that I'm blanking on right now。 Rating: G? Nothing objectionable I can recall。 Pretty basic intro to personal finance, might be an easy way for someone in late teens / early 20s without much exposure to get their feet wet。 Some good principles, but very basic and simple。 Nearly lost a star or two for recommending direct sales as a way to bolster income (aka MLM)。 Marked a couple pages about finding a good financial advisor and another that I'm blanking on right now。 Rating: G?
