The Barefoot Investor: The Only Money Guide You’ll Ever Need by Scott Pape by Scott Pape
Description
Dwelling on a list of books that boldly claims to be the next to last thing you should ever have on your self-help bookshelf, Scott Pape’s The Barefoot Investor: The Only Money Guide You’ll Ever Need differentiates itself beyond that of most “last-stop-guides” ever published out there. How? It’s pretty simple. So simple, to the point that other monetary guides are written tend to forget the essence of how guides should be written – informative but straightforward. This turns out to be one of the main strengths of reading the Barefoot Investor and why many prefer to read this guide compared to others. The Barefoot Investor doesn’t waste its time going off the tracks of a topic, giving you unnecessary saving tips, practices, and deals that you’ll have to make to ‘earn money the right way.’ Instead, it keeps its focus on the bare necessities that keep you right on top of your finances. If you any maxed-out credit cards that are always outside your reaches of control, or if you have a housing loan that eats into your finances, then this book can help you find a solution to your financial problems. Some of the approaches to money management are provided in a way that may not seem tedious and, at times, fun to follow. Besides, even if you aren’t truly looking for a self-help guide and are aiming for a more mind-expanding experience, then this book can still be a witty read. Written to be easily read, Scott Pape’s ‘The Barefoot Investor: The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need’ is equivalent to a financial monk passing down nuggets of money-management wisdom in an entertaining yet insightful package.
