Resumen del Editor

Fully revised and updated for the 2020-2021 financial year

This is the only money guide you'll ever need.

That's a bold claim, given there are already thousands of finance books on the shelves.

So what makes this one different?

Well, you won't be overwhelmed with a bunch of "tips" or a strict budget (that you won't follow).

You'll get a step-by-step formula: open this account, then do this; call this person, and say this; invest money here and not there. All with a glass of wine in your hand.

This book will show you how to create an entire financial plan that is so simple you can sketch it on the back of a serviette...and you'll be able to manage your money in 10 minutes a week.

You'll also get the skinny on:

• Saving up a six-figure house deposit in 20 months
• Doubling your income using the Trapeze Strategy
• Saving $78,173 on your mortgage and wiping out seven years of payments
• Finding a financial advisor who won't rip you off
• Handing your kids (or grandkids) $140,000 checks on their 21st birthdays
• Why you don't need $1 million to retire...with the Donald Bradman Retirement Strategy

Sound too good to be true? It's not.

This book is full of stories from everyday Aussies—single people, young families, empty nesters, retirees—who have applied the simple steps in this book and achieved amazing, life-changing results.

And you're next.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

overall very inspirational

I liked the book, it has some of the very important statistics and advice, although first half was much more interesting.
Narration was done good, personally I don't like that much emotion in an audiobook but that's subjective.
I definitely recommend this book to people that want to learn to manage their finances, especially in Australia. If you are from some second or third world country this rules do not apply so just skip this book.

Inspiring and informative. A must read.

The barefoot investor is like a conversation with a rich relative who happily shares the steps they took to financial security. It's simple, conversational and effective. Unlike other wealth management books, Barefoot doesn't waffle on with theory, it provides the actual steps you can take to gain control of your money so it grows and grows... kind of like planting a money tree :)

Very Informative

Good overall strategy . will not exactly mach us buy close to it . Need little but research to use in USA .

Love It!

I'm a middle class working woman who while not in debt (except the mortgages) I definitely don't have a plan and I've avoided looking at my finances like the plague because it was too confusing and boring.
This book clears up much of my confusion and gives me the confidence I need to move forward into the fall of my life without fear.
Thanks Scott!
Now I'm going to listen again!

Must Read For Anyone in their 30s

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Great insights for those starting out and with great aspirations.. And for anyone needing some pointers on financial discipline...

Practical, funny and very relevant.

Really the most enjoyable book I've ever read on personal finance. Highly relevant for Aussies.

after 639 audible titles i have a favorite

loved this very highly recommended by lot's of my friends life changing book. my name is John Krstic i have had two builders rip me off and a wife leave me and am recovering from a hip replacement after a femoral head collapse. together with my new very loved partner we will follow the barefoot way and change our over 400k debt at 49 years of age into a legacy. together and with Scott 'we got this'.

Somewhat useful for non Aussies

It contains some useful info for non Aussies. But I most of the tips and actions re really specific for the Aussie market.

The most entertaining book on finance you'll read.

Title says it all. It's the most fun book on finance you'll have a chance to read, and the best part is I actually learned something.

practical no fluff advise that you can apply

this is great for all of us that are nervously heading towards the finacial abyss. No Bull, no marketing bumf . At last financial advise i can sort out ro get me to the next level. I have already sharing. Now to tackle the wife on this!
