  “I’ve read this classic book three times—first when I started my financial
  journey, again after I achieved financial independence, and once more after I
  ‘retired’ at the age of thirty-four. Each time, it has revealed new gems that
  have helped me live a happier and more fulfilling life. If you want to invest
  in your financial future and (more importantly) your long-term happiness, I
  can’t think of a better investment than _Your Money or Your Life.”_
