Raffi Grinberg
Acerca de esta escucha
What Color Is Your Parachute? meets I Will Teach You To Be Rich for twentysomethings. Raffi Grinberg, who created and taught the ever-oversubscribed college course "Adulting 101," offers a practical guide to adult life's greatest mysteries that were never taught in school, including how to launch your career, find your purpose (for right now), invest your money, and much more.
Though twenty- and thirty-somethings are better educated than ever before, essentially none of the topics critical to being a full-fledged adult—such as how to get a new job, create a budget, file your taxes, face rejection, and navigate family dynamics—are covered in lower or higher education. Fortunately, here is a book that does just that.
From entrepreneur Raffi Grinberg, who lived and learned the hard way throughout his twenties, here is a crash course in everything you need to know to be a grown up. Based on his wildly popular "Adulting 101" course at Boston College, Grinberg firmly steers you through the basics of being a grown up using interactive chapters, bite-size nuggets of wisdom, humor, and stories from his twenties, including nearly going broke, having bad credit, disappointing his parents, and much more. As Raffi tells his students, "I want you to have a quarter-life crisis now so that you won't have a mid-life crisis later."

The right idea, invoked at the right time, can change our lives. Drawing from her long studies of happiness, and also from the challenges she’s faced herself, writer Gretchen Rubin has discovered the “Secrets of Adulthood” that can help us manage the complexities of life. To convey her conclusions, she turned to the aphorism—the ancient literary discipline that demands that a writer convey a large truth in a few words.

In recent years, Olga Khazan had been spiraling toward an existential crisis. Though she treasured her loving, long-term relationship and her dream job, she often caught herself snatching dissatisfaction from the jaws of happiness. Her neurotic overachieving had always been a professional asset, but lately, Olga felt that her brittle disposition could shatter under the weight of just one more thing. She knew something had to give—but was it really possible to change her entire approach to life?

Eating is an indispensable human activity. As a result, whether we realize it or not, the drive to obtain food has been a major catalyst across all of history, from prehistoric times to the present. Epicure Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin said it best: "Gastronomy governs the whole life of man."
