As a young adult interested in getting a (relative) head start on personal finance, I found this a really helpful place to start. The information is backed up by logic and resources you can check out on your own, and Sethi provides actionable advice so that you can easily get started now that you understand the how and why. (Literally, most chapters end with a list of “action steps” to take.)

My only complaint is that Sethi goes on a lot of tangents which I didn’t actually find interesting or funny; there are a lot of sexual analogies and venting about how much he wants to throw onions at people who make poor financial decisions. It doesn’t detract from the useful advice, but it was annoying.
