Acerca de esta escucha
It might seem like everyone you know took secret classes on budgeting, owning their career, and choosing the right wine - and you were sick that day. Enter: How to Skimm Your Life. Covering everything from personal finance, to career, to stress management, global politics, and more, this book breaks down some of the less glamorous parts of being an adult and answers questions like...
- "What's the difference between an ETF and a mutual fund?"
- "How should I negotiate my salary when I'm offered a new job?"
- "Should I claim standard or itemized deductions on my taxes?"
- "How should I tip while traveling abroad?"
- "How do I read the wine list without breaking out a dictionary?"
- And much more....
How to Skimm Your Life gives you the information you need to make informed and empowered decisions in your life. Whether you're a recent graduate, looking to make a change, or just want to reset, this book will be time well spent.

Lifestyle changes can be overwhelming: It’s hard to take on major goals without falling prey to self-doubt. But with kaizen, big goals become small, approachable steps. This Japanese method first made waves in the business world by launching Toyota to success; it also adds magic to Marie Kondo’s life-changing method of tidying up. As Kondo puts it: “You can take the first small step toward your dream today, and keep taking small steps to grow your passions.” Now, Sarah Harvey unlocks kaizen’s amazing potential to enhance our everyday lives.

Long before the first pharmaceutical companies opened their doors in the 1850s, doctors treated people, not symptoms. And although we've become used to popping pills, Americans have finally had it with the dangerous side effects, addiction, and over-prescribing - and they're desperate for an alternative. Here's the good news: That alternative has been here all along in the form of ancient treatments used for eons in traditional Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Greek medicine.

While most contemporary Enneagram books stop at the descriptions of the nine types, Enneagram teacher and The Sacred Enneagram best-selling author Chris Heuertz uncovers the missing link in our journey of living into our true self: radical self-compassion that can bring us back to belonging. Rather than get stuck on stereotypes or curated personality, Heuertz proposes we develop an honest relationship with our type, confronting our "inner dragons," practicing self-compassion, and thereby coming to fully belong to ourselves - and, ultimately, to love itself.

In What We Owe The Future, philosopher William MacAskill argues for longtermism, that idea that positively influencing the distant future is a key moral priority of our time. It’s not enough to reverse climate change or avert the next pandemic. We must ensure that civilization would rebound if it collapsed, counter the end of moral progress, and prepare for a planet where the smartest beings are digital, not human. If we set humanity’s course right, our grandchildren’s grandchildren will thrive, knowing we did everything to give them a world of justice, hope, and beauty.

Bertrand Russell wrote that mathematics can exalt "as surely as poetry". This is especially true of one equation: ei(pi) + 1 = 0, the brainchild of Leonhard Euler, the Mozart of mathematics. More than two centuries after Euler's death, it is still regarded as a conceptual diamond of unsurpassed beauty. Called Euler's identity, or God's equation, it includes just five numbers but represents an astonishing revelation of hidden connections.

Some good parts and some not so good
I do appreciate brevity but I think this was an extreme. Also a lot of the word count was wasted with little titles that were supposed to be clever or funny but they were just repetitive, cliche and confusing. if they had removed all of those then 1/3 of the total word count of the book would have been available for some more sustenance and meat.
But there were definitely some interesting sections. I especially liked the chapter about networking and job hunting and using LinkedIn.
I thought it was funny how the book started off talking about wine and then ended talking about voting, that's totally the Skimms style lol :)

Interesting
Overall it was a good summation of helpful life facts. Though the end was very long in it's explanation of the world and government it was also some of the most helpful and in depth of the sections. Ironically the wine section was without a doubt the dryest section. I enjoyed it overall as a useful refresher in some cases, and informative in other sections.

For a younger generation or for a refresher
I loved the narration of this audio book. The book itself is exactly as titled. This book provides great information to those that did not pay attention in school or that just need a refresher on the details of stuff. From which wines to drink with which foods (drink what you like, but some taste better with certain foods) to details about what makes up our government and about other countries and how they it works in a general sense. It may leave you wanting more to listen to.

Great for the young, redundant for the old
I LOVE the Skimm, I think everyone should subscribe to their emails and listen to their podcasts. I was super excited for this book. It's written in their signature witty style and is entertaining, but the information is basic. This book would be terrific for someone that is just graduating from high school or even college. But as a person that has been in the real world for over 15 years, I know the vast majority of this stuff, less than 5% of this book is new info to me. I will continue to be a fan, but I would only recommend this book to the youngest of my acquaintances.

This book is for 20 yr old girls...
I made through the first couple of chapters not wanting to waste my credit, but that's all I could take. The title should be "How to skim your life: some quick rules of thumb for 20 yr old girls." There is some good information here, just not for a middle aged man who thought the title was interesting. I should have listened more closely to the sample. Live and learn. Oh well.
