And it’s not just a book.
It’s the theory + the execution.
Most people aren't struggling because they don't have enough money; they're struggling because they don't have a system.

I just bought the book this morning and I'm already 19 pages in. I've always been intrigued by the concept of investing but never really understood much of it. I am so so grateful for this resource. I will do even further research (like recommend in the book) but I just want to thank the author so so much for breaking it down and making it so easy to understand. As a 24 year old I am so grateful to finally feel like I can have some control over my finances. Thank you
