Review of 'The Barefoot Investor' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

This is a somewhat prescriptive book targeted at fairly traditional family structures. It's great to have some clearly defined steps for how to manage your finances, rather than more general wishy-washy advice, assuming you're within the target demographic for whom this advice makes sense.

I perceived some of the prose as somewhat arrogant, but maybe some people need that sort of upfront and direct approach; it didn't quite work for me.

My intent is to use this as a basis for where to start researching what would work for me, and take from the book what works for me, and leave what doesn't.
