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 investingand 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 Indianthe conversation begins with no why Budgeting Doesn't Have to Suck! how to get things rollingfor realwith 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 lifeto 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.

From the Back Cover
You don't have to be perfect to be rich. Or the smartest person in the room. Or a type-A personality. In fact, with Ramit Sethi's six-week program to financial independence, you can start with any amount of money, do just 85 percent of what he suggests, and succeed brilliantly through good times and bad. As irreverent and entertaining as he is practical and wise, Sethi explains how to beat banks and credit cards at the fee game, automate your cash flow, negotiate for a raise, manage student loans, and enjoy your lattes and Manolo Blahniks by practicing conscious spending. It's how to master your money with the least amount of effort and then get on with your life.

I was very skeptical initially. I found Ramit's style very challenging and almost arrogant. Definitely not PC. This has become quite entertaining for me now.
His specific focus each week is an awesome blueprint for success.
I am recommending this to all my friends.
It change my consciousness about my expenses and this even affected my fiancee' and she followed suit when seeing my success.
I dare to say in less than a month's time I personally have developed and implemented strategies to save over $2000.00 this year, and I already thought was living as lean as possible.
This will mean many thousands over the course of my life.
I will be taking his 6-week boot camp and joining his Scrooge Strategy Website as well.
He's saved me many times the investment already.
Feel free to use this orange key coupon when initially registering for the online high interest accounts he speaks of in the book if you found this review helpful.

Being a foreigner it was really nice to get this book. It gives detailed explanations of personal financial instruments that are available in the US (works for Canada as well, just the names can be a bit different, same idea) I had no idea about. I've already followed a couple of advices from this book, looks like they are going to save me some real $$ (i.e. getting 3% cash back card instead of just 1%).

Such a great book! I have been reading Ramit's blog for the past few months... His first book is just as good, if not better, than his personal blog [...]. It truly is a great guide to get back on track with your money and do the right things before it's too late.
This book is intentend for people in their 20's or 30's, but anyone could make partial or complete use of his tricks. The subjects he covers are, for example, how to make a better use of your credit cards, how to get a grip of where your money goes and how to start investing slowly yet surely. Details and tips are given in abundance to make sure you know where to start.
I know that a name like "I will teach you to be rich" may sound like a scam, or something exagerated, but it's not the case. This guy is truly on the right track to being rich, and I'm right there behind following his tips to become wealthy as well.
Finally, the thing I love the most about his book is that it's straightforward: No waste of time, just a step by step guide with plenty of great advices that you need to take advantage of.
The book covers a wide variety of subject that we always have questions about, and delivers the answers flawlessly.
If you want to save a LOT of money in the future, and also become rich, this book is for you, trust me.
One last thing! Ramit is specific and gives a lot of details on how to apply the tricks in your life. He's not just being generic... He clearly explains how to get back on track, step by step. You need to take ACTION and realize the importance of applying this book's content in real life.
You'll do much better! Buy this book, it could be the best book you've ever bought this year!
