A financial wake-up call

Employing the advice in this book will make you feel like a financial insider. The author shares information that should be heard and understood by everyone. I’ve got a lot of work to do!

Sacred cows killed

Not a typical book on finances and investing. Very eye opening and the approach described is unassailable. The narrator is also amazing and makes what many might consider a dry topic interesting.

Insights to Finance Made Easy

Warp Whistles is written with candor and flows nicely through the investment thesis. The narrator with his slightly sardonic pretentious British accent made Warp Whistles an especially enjoyable listen. Excellent narrator casting.
Once the investment foundations are laid, Sean shares a review of his investment portfolio, and then delves into his well articulated macro big picture. I must confess I did use my right to Warp Whistle over the Federal Reserve discussion. The final chapter will make a second edition a certainty.
I enjoyed the audio version so much that I ordered a hard copy
