As a practising financial planner for the last 20 years I have come to realise that the biggest things that people can do to become wealthy aren't about money directly. They are the principles and attitudes to money and wealth creation that provide the basis for a fulfilling and successful life, in which money is not the end in itself but the means to the end. Understanding these principles needs a great teacher, and David Scarlett's book is one of the best I have come across. David's simple tale is gripping to read, well-paced with lots of emphasis on the key ideas, and highly enjoyable. I learned a lot from it and I am sure that you will, too. Buy it for yourself, your partner, your kids and everyone you care about.
