as a personal finance enthusiast, i always find it fascinating why we make the money decisions we do, and this book was perfect for explaining that.

a huge take away from this book is that being able to have the freedom of choice - to choose how you want to live, choose who you hang out with, is the biggest investment. this is precisely why i went freelance - not for the money, but to be able to construct my life.

i think a lot of 20-somethings will get a LOT out of this book - the importance for anxious and risk adverse people to start investing NOW so that the don’t have to take larger risks when they are older and can be more conservative with money.

ultimately, money does help buy freedom and i think this book an important read for everyone who wants to be more in control of their life.
