The narration and voice was something that keeps the listeners engaged. The content of the chapters covered a great deal of topics that are involved in today's society and what options are available. Without some knowledge/history in finance there can be some areas that could be a challenge to fully grasp. And this book covers the financial department from the US perspective. There are some other counties that don't have the same opportunities, The PDF that is attached is thoroughly detailed and covers a great deal of content that is quite beneficial.

Loved this audiobook. The narration and voice is great. The content is amazing and value-added. The professor explained the concepts in plain language. I am in an MBA program and I can tell you that I gained a better understanding of how bonds, stocks and TMV work in this lecture compared to my professor at my Corporate Finance class. Make sure to download the pdf online so that you can follow along. You can find the pdf in your Audible account under my library.

The author shares some great explanations of types on investments, and strategies for long and short term investing. Wish I had listened to this years ago. Also, the author is the narrator and does an excellent job keeping it interesting.

This audio book is good. I’m getting into investments so the information isn’t over the top but i will give it a slower listen the 2nd time around. It’s worth a listen/read. Gave the story 4stars because there were a few things I didn’t grab the concept maybe my it’ll sink in on my 2nd go.
