I Will Teach You to Be Rich
No Guilt. No Excuses. No B.S. Just a 6-Week Program That Works.
By Ramit Sethi
About the book
Ramit Sethi, whose blog shares the book's name, sets out a six-week money plan for people aged 20 to 35, resting on four pillars: banking, saving, budgeting and investing. Its premise is that people can spend without guilt on what they love once the right accounts and investments run automatically. He covers paying down debt and student loans, opening no-fee accounts, negotiating away late fees with scripts, and a simple long-term investing approach. Sethi also handles large costs such as cars, houses and weddings, and gives exact wording for asking for a raise. Workman published it in 2009 and it became a New York Times bestseller; a 10th anniversary edition later added more than 80 pages.
Cal Newport endorsed it for its tightly targeted content, which lays out a six-week plan to help young people sort out their finances, and Seth Godin praised it as a guide to getting rich through knowledge and a measure of discipline.

The easiest way to get rich is to inherit. This is the second best way—knowledge and some discipline. If you’re bold enough to do the right thing, Ramit will show you how. Highly recommended.

Here is why I endorse Ramit’s book: The content is targeted like a laser beam and solves a real problem. Specifically, it describes a six-week program to help young people get their finances in order.
