At last, for a generation that's materially ambitious yet
financially clueless comes I Will Teach You To Be
Rich, Ramit Sethi's 6-week personal finance program for
20-to-35-year-olds. A completely practical approach
delivered with a nonjudgmental style that makes readers want
to do what Sethi says, it is based around the four pillars
of personal finance— banking, saving, budgeting, and
investing—and the wealth-building ideas of personal
entrepreneurship. Sethi covers how to save time by
not wasting it managing money; the guns and cars myth of
credit cards; how to negotiate like an Indian—the
conversation begins with "no"; why "Budgeting Doesn't
Have to Suck!"; how to get things rolling—for real—with only
$20; what most people don't understand about taxes; how to
get a CEO to take you out to lunch; how to avoid the
Super Mario Brothers trap by making your savings work harder
than you do; the difference between cheap and frugal; the
hidden relationship between money and food. Not to mention
his first key lesson: Getting started is more important than
being the smartest person in the room. Integrated with his
website, where readers can use interactive charts, follow up
on the latest information, and join the community, it is a
hip blueprint to building wealth and financial security.
Every month, 175,000 unique visitors come to Ramit
Sethi's website, Iwillteachyoutoberich.com, to discover the
path to financial freedom. They praise him thoughtfully
("Your site summarizes everything I want with my life—to be
rich in finances, rich in experience, rich in family
blessings," Dan Esparza) and effusively ("Dude, you
rock. I love this site!" Richard Wu). The press has
caught on, too: "Ramit Sethi is a rising star in the world
of personal finance writing . . . one singularly attuned to
the sensibilities of his generation. his style is part frat
boy and part silicon Valley geek, with a little bit of San
Francisco hipster thrown in" (San Francisco
Chronicle). His writing is smart, his voice is full of
attitude, and his ideas are uncommonly sound and
refreshingly hype-free.
