I Will Teach You To Be Rich

Book Author: Ramit Sethi

Ramit Sethi doesn’t sugarcoat things. He writes like a financially savvy older brother who’s slightly annoyed you’re still using a debit card. This book isn’t about penny-pinching or spreadsheets. It’s about automating your money, spending on what you love, and guilt-free wealth.

💡 Big Wins > Small Sacrifices: • Focus on things that actually move the needle: investing, debt, big expenses. • Automate your savings and investments so you don’t think about them. • Don’t feel guilty about lattes. Feel guilty about inaction.

❤️ What Hit Home: • Ramit’s scripts for negotiating fees and raises are gold. • The tone is confident without being condescending. • It’s aggressively practical — you can take action after chapter one.

🤔 What I Skipped: • Some of the humour felt forced, especially if you’re outside the U.S. • Not all banking and credit info applies in Australia or India.

📈 Final Verdict: This is the financial kick in the teeth that most people in their 20s need. Actionable, honest, and refreshingly modern.
