“Unlocking Wealth: My Journey with ‘I Will Teach You to Be Rich’
“Have you ever imagined finding a guide to wealth and a richer life? That’s what ‘I Will Teach You to Be Rich‘ by Ramit Sethi became for me. This book goes beyond the surface, offering a six-week plan for young adults that’s as much about personal growth as it is about financial growth.
Sethi doesn’t just throw complex financial terms at you; he breaks down the essence of wealth-building into bite-sized, actionable steps. Every chapter is a stepping stone towards financial independence, from automating your finances to investing wisely. What I found most compelling was the emphasis on psychology over numbers. It’s not just about how much you earn but how you manage and grow it that counts. Here are some transformative points he makes:
- Automate Your Finances: Automating savings and bills ensures you always live within your means and that your savings grow without you having to think about it.
- The 50/30/20 Rule for Budgeting: Allocate 50% of your income to essentials, 30% to wants, and 20% to savings and debt repayment. This framework ensures a balance between enjoying your life now and preparing for the future.
- Investing in High-Interest Savings Accounts and Retirement Accounts: Sethi emphasizes the importance of letting your money work for you through compound interest, making your wealth grow even when you’re not actively adding to it.
- Conscious Spending: This means spending money on what you truly value and cutting costs mercilessly on things that don’t bring you joy or value. It’s about making your money serve your life rather than vice versa.
- Using Credit Wisely: Credit cards are not the enemy if you use them correctly. They can help build your credit score and offer rewards if you pay off the balance each month.
These principles changed my perspective on money management. Realizing that financial freedom is achievable with the right strategies and mindset is empowering. Focusing on what you can control — how you save, spend, and invest — can significantly impact your financial future.
Sharing these insights with you is like passing on a map to treasure.

你有没有想过找到一个不仅仅是关于财富，而是关于更丰富生活的指南？这就是拉米特·塞提的《我会教你成为富有》对我来说的意义。这本书超越了表面，为年轻人提供了一个六周计划，这个计划既是关于个人成长，也是关于财务成长。
塞提不仅仅向你抛出复杂的金融术语；他将建立财富的本质分解成可行的小步骤。从自动化你的财务到明智投资，每一章都是通往财务独立的一步。最吸引我的是对心理学而不是数字的强调。重要的不仅是你赚了多少钱，而是你如何管理和增长它。他提出了一些变革性的观点：
- 自动化你的财务：自动化储蓄和账单支付确保你总是生活在你的手段之内，你的储蓄在不需要你考虑的情况下增长。
- 预算的50/30/20规则：将你的收入的50%分配给必需品，30%分配给想要的东西，20%分配给储蓄和偿还债务。这个框架确保了现在享受生活和为将来准备之间的平衡。
- 投资于高利息储蓄账户和退休账户：塞提强调通过复利让你的钱为你工作的重要性，即使你不活跃增加它，你的财富也在增长。
- 有意识的消费：这意味着在你真正重视的东西上花钱，并且在不给你带来快乐或价值的东西上无情地削减成本。这是关于让你的钱服务于你的生活，而不是反过来。
- 明智使用信用：如果你正确使用信用卡，它们不是敌人。只要你每个月支付余额，它们可以帮助你建立信用评分并提供奖励。
这些原则改变了我对金钱管理的看法。意识到财务自由是通过正确的策略和心态可以实现的，这是一种赋权感。通过专注于你可以控制的东西——你如何储蓄、花费和投资——你可以显著影响你的财务未来。
