Publisher's Summary

Retire early from your nine-to-five and reach financial freedom with the actionable advice in this personal finance best-seller—now completely revised with new content from the author!

Building wealth is always possible, even while working full-time, earning a median income, and paying off debt. By layering philosophy with practical knowledge, Set for Life gives people in their 20s and 30s an action plan they need to conquer their financial goals early in life. With more than 130,000 first-edition copies sold, this anniversary edition gets a refresh with new content, updated numbers, and even more valuable tips and tricks learned over the last five years.

Scott Trench—real estate investor, co-host of the BiggerPockets Money Podcast, and CEO of BiggerPockets—demonstrates how to accumulate a lifetime of wealth over a short period of time. Even starting with zero savings, you can go from a five-figure income to six figures, from an active job to passive income, then finally to the ultimate goal of financial independence.

Set yourself up for life as early as possible, and enjoy life on your terms!

Inside this book, you’ll learn how to:

  • Save more income (50+ percent of it) while still having fun
  • Double or triple your income in 3–5 years
  • Track your financial progress in order to achieve the greatest results
  • Build frugal and efficient habits to make the most of your lifestyle
  • Secure “real” assets and avoid ”false” ones that destroy wealth
  • Use real estate and stock investing to generate passive income
  • And much more!

I’m a 20yr old trying to get my life in order

I am very fortunate to have listened to this audiobook at a young age as I yearn freedom at a early age. Before reading this book I had some knowledge regarding investment strategies and I can confidently say most things that were on the top of my priority list have either been placed closer to the bottom or even taken out completely. If you’re like me read this book and apply it to your daily lives. This isn’t a one stop shop for all the knowledge regarding to become financially free but a stepping stone that is worth the listen.

Incredibly Informative

This book provides a large amount of information that does not discourage working hard to achieve goals. It provides a great insight into typical spending and how you can minimize your expenses to achieve your goals.

Very informative even if you aren’t early career

I’ve listed/read a lot of pf books and this one was one of the best. It’s honest, provides practical tips and is useful even for a Canadian who is midcareer. Highly recommend!

Mediocre and only aimed at white men

This book was mediocre and is really only structured to speak to privileged, childless white men.

The only examples of success that the author references are other privileged white men- not a single woman! He only references one or two women in his hypothetical examples of ways not to be.

I wouldn’t recommend it.
