“Teach you to be rich” here is teaching solid personal finance habits that should be widely taught but usually aren’t. Good credit, automation, and allocation into proper funds. It covers financial situations from 0-100 with a thorough six-week plan to walk you through improving your systems.
What separates this from most financial books is that Ramit names specific banks, brokerages, credit cards, and financial tools that he likes and dislikes. Even if you’re happy with your setup, it could get you thinking about your APYs or card benefits. There’s some tedious pep talk and a little upselling in between, but much less than most books of this genre.
The second edition seems to have a lot of updates, covering the FIRE community, freelancing, and crypto.
