Meaty book with actual numbers and examples to back up the lessons unlike a lot of other books in this genre。 There's a wealth of info for anyone who wants to learn how to get their finances and future in order and is willing to put in the work。 Even with all the info， it's quite easy to read and there's some good humor thrown in too。 Meaty book with actual numbers and examples to back up the lessons unlike a lot of other books in this genre。 There's a wealth of info for anyone who wants to learn how to get their finances and future in order and is willing to put in the work。 Even with all the info， it's quite easy to read and there's some good humor thrown in too。 。。。more

Phenomenal resource that covers so many important real-life decisions。 I'm a big fan of Financial Samurai and got an early copy to review and wish I had this book when I was back in college so I could have used it in my 20s and 30s。 I’m in my 40s now and there’s still so much I learned from the book that I can use today and over several more decades。 It’s really like getting 10-15 books in one。I really like Sam’s writing style and his expertise that uses strategies and advice that you can actual Phenomenal resource that covers so many important real-life decisions。 I'm a big fan of Financial Samurai and got an early copy to review and wish I had this book when I was back in college so I could have used it in my 20s and 30s。 I’m in my 40s now and there’s still so much I learned from the book that I can use today and over several more decades。 It’s really like getting 10-15 books in one。I really like Sam’s writing style and his expertise that uses strategies and advice that you can actually put to use。 There’s a lot of personal finance books out there that only talk about one subject and just drag on and on and only offer vague tips without any clear action items。 This book isn’t like that。 I felt it really delivers action points and simple， yet applicable calculations and keeps you eager to keep reading throughout。 It’s also easy to understand even if some of the topics are brand new to you。I also really like his advice on overcoming decision paralysis because I’ve struggled with indecision a lot in my life。 The suggestions are really helpful with making big choices that involve money， work， housing， investing， kids， and lots more。 And not only does it help with making decisions， but it also helps you avoiding costly mistakes。 Highly recommended for anyone who wants to grow their wealth， learn more about personal finance， and learn new ways to improve their life in many different ways。 You can read more of my thoughts in a longer review I posted on my blog。 。。。more

I'm going to give myself 5 stars for BTNT！ It took me two years to write and I went through about 15 edits with five editors from Portfolio Penguin Random House。 I wrote this book because I don't see any personal finance books written by people with finance backgrounds who are also living what they recommend。 For 30 years， I have worked in and written about finance。 I still do by publishing 3X a week on FinancialSamurai。com。 Money is too important to be left up to pontification。 Everything I've I'm going to give myself 5 stars for BTNT！ It took me two years to write and I went through about 15 edits with five editors from Portfolio Penguin Random House。 I wrote this book because I don't see any personal finance books written by people with finance backgrounds who are also living what they recommend。 For 30 years， I have worked in and written about finance。 I still do by publishing 3X a week on FinancialSamurai。com。 Money is too important to be left up to pontification。 Everything I've written is based off firsthand experience。 Further， I've had the luxury of having the perspectives of 90+ million visitors who've come to Financial Samurai since 2009。 I've incorporate their viewpoints in my book。 Buy This， Not That is not just a book about helping you achieve financial freedom sooner， it's also a book about helping you make more suboptimal decisions。 I go through some big dilemmas， such as:Pay for private school or public schoolJoin a startup or work for an established companyJob hop or stay a loyal soldierLive in an expensive coastal city or move to a low-cost areaInvest in real estate or stocksWhen to rent or buyWhen to invest in tax-advantaged versus taxable accountsAngel invest or don’tDividend stocks or growth stocksBuy a fixer or a fully remodeled homeMarry or cohabitateMarry for love or marry for moneyHave children early or lateReturn to work or be a stay-at-home-parentCombine your finances or keep separate accountsGet a divorce or stay marriedSeek fame or stay low keyBuy or lease a carKeep The Bank Of Mom And Dad open or closedFor more information about my book and a 2-minute audio intro， you can go to my landing page。 https://www。financialsamurai。com/btnt/Thanks for your support！ Sam 。。。more
