Great book!

It is some harsh truths but we need to hear some. Even if you're already on your way financially, there are a lot of good nuggets.

Excellent

Well written and well thought! I have learned a lot and the information is clear cut

Great insights

I became a fan of Brad Klontz’s work when I started studying behavioral finance. I immediately understood his money scripts and other financial psychology information that he shares. Now I understand why. His psychological knowledge came from the school of hard knocks. I know that school too, it teaches you a lot if you pay attention. I got interested in psychology for similar reasons as Brad, to understand my tough upbringing and difficult people I grew up with. So behavioral finance is easier for me to understand because I already knew the psychology. Brad spearheaded a knew financial industry with financial psychology. The industry is paying more attention to the human being behind the numbers.

Thats why I bought the his book and I wasn’t disappointed. Brad and Adrian Shared great insights that I’m going to incorporate into my life in my road to financial freedom. ❤️‍🔥🙏🏿

Insightful and inspiring

This was actually the first book I’ve ever finished on this app. The book was informative and kept my attention the entire time. There are so many helpful tips and advice that I’m definitely going to take. This book made me take a hard look at my spending and made me accountable for my situation. Overall fantastic book great information!

Building Wealth Concepts Make Sense

Some of the concepts were common sense, but hard for many poor people to follow. They are all ways that will lead to investing and saving more, and spending less. I plan to use most of the ideas from this book in my own life. The only reason I gave four stars for performance is because the way the narrator pauses between phrases or sentences is kind of annoying. However it did not detract from understanding the book, and I certainly still finished it.
