I came across a book entitled How Money Works: Stop Being A Sucker by Tom Mathews and Steve Siebold.
It was actually given to my family by my wife’s coworker.
After reading it I definitely think that it is a great book for all young people and anyone else looking to add a little knowledge about money.
It is any easy read at just over 100 pages and not overly technical at all.
I finished it in less than a day.
While I’m happy that there was nothing new in it for me, I still really enjoyed it and am going to have my kids read it.
It is certainly a good introduction for people starting their independent financial lives.
I also think that it is a great place to start to find other areas of personal finance that interest you so that you can do a deeper dive to educate yourself.
To me it also reinforces the message that we have to start our children’s financial lives earlier because time is by far the most important thing that we have when it comes to money.
We don’t have to be perfect or take uncomfortable risks if we use time effectively!
So, check out the book and pass it on if you like it.
I’ll be donating my copy to our public library when we are done.
