A revolutionary system to get one per cent better every day. People think when
you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits
expert James Clear has discovered another way. He knows that real change comes
from the compound effect of hundreds of small decisions – doing two push-ups a

calls them atomic habits.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich
life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and
we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't
sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing,
honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected
modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just
for showing up.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically
taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to
do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a
spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where
personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and
odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning
author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people
think about money.

Celebrating its 15th year of helping people solve personal and professional
problems, this special anniversary edition includes a new foreword and afterword

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical
abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline,
mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed,
overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the
world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite
training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he
went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

The world's greatest bodybuilder. The world's highest paid movie star. The
leader of the world's sixth largest economy. That these are the same person
sounds like the setup to a joke. But this is no joke. This is Arnold
Schwarzenegger. And this did not happen by accident. Arnold's stratospheric
success happened as part of a process. As the result of clear vision, big
thinking, hard work, direct communication, resilient problem-solving,
open-minded curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. All of it guided by the
one lesson Arnold's father hammered into him above all: be useful.

Hugh van Cuylenburg was a primary school teacher volunteering in northern India
when he had a life-changing realisation: despite the underprivileged community
the children were from, they were remarkably positive. By contrast, back in
Australia Hugh knew that all too many children struggled with depression, social
anxieties and mental illness. His own little sister had been ravaged by anorexia
nervosa. How was it that young people he knew at home, who had food, shelter,
friends and a loving family, struggled with their mental health, while these
kids seemed so contented and resilient?

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Whether you’re looking to save up enough money to put down a deposit on a house
or find a financial adviser who’s actually trustworthy, it’s safe to say that
achieving financial objectives can feel like an insurmountable challenge. But
with the guidance of Scott Pape, The Barefoot Investor himself, your most
ambitious money goals can become a reality.
This guide isn’t filled with unachievable budget demands or plans that are
impossible to actually put into action. Rather, Pape distils his most pragmatic
money advice into five easy-to-follow steps. Aussies can rest assured that they
have the most up-to-date information on who to call, where to invest and what to
say to achieve financial freedom once and for all. As he’s known for his work on
radio and television, it’s no surprise that Pape is a masterful storyteller and
narrator — his rich, warm voice brings to life stories from real life
Australians, demonstrating the changes in money habits needed to grow and
sustain wealth.
PUBLISHER'S SUMMARY
THE ALL-TIME NUMBER ONE AUSTRALIAN BEST SELLER
This is the only money guide you'll ever need.
That's a bold claim, given there are thousands of finance books on the shelves.
Yet there’s a reason this book is in one in every 20 Australian homes.
You’ll find out how to create an entire financial plan that is so simple you can
sketch it on the back of a serviette...and you'll be able to manage your money
in 10 minutes a week.
The Barefoot Steps stand the test of time. In this classic edition, you’ll get
the skinny on:
* Saving up a six-figure house deposit in 20 months
* Doubling your income using the 'Trapeze Strategy'
* Saving $77,641 on your mortgage and wiping out almost seven years of
payments
* Handing your kids (or grandkids) a $140,000 cheque on their 21st birthday
* Why you don't need $1 million to retire...with the 'Donald Bradman Retirement
Strategy'
Sound too good to be true? It's not.
This book is full of stories from everyday Aussies — single people, young
families, empty nesters, retirees — who have applied the Barefoot Steps, freed
themselves from crippling debt and achieved amazing, life-changing results.
And you're next.
Scott Pape is the Barefoot Investor.
Since 2002, he’s reached millions of Australians through his email newsletter,
national weekend newspaper columns, appearances on TV and radio and his
bestselling books, The Barefoot Investor (2016) and The Barefoot Investor for
Families (2018).
He has worked with the heads of government, schools across the country, AFL and
NRL teams, bushfire survivors, and some of the most vulnerable people in our
community.
In 2020, Scott was awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for ‘service
to the community and to financial education’.
Scott gave up his financial services license in 2020 to become a volunteer
financial counsellor.
He lives in country Victoria with his wife, Liz, and their four children on
their family
farm and is often seen belting around in an old ute that doesn’t need to be
locked.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be
available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

PERFECT FOR AUSTRALIANS, NOT SO MUCH FOR OTHERS
The content in the book is as good advice as you will get from anywhere, if you
follow what Scott says and have faith you will dig yourself out of whatever hole
you are in.
Clear steps on what to do, when to do it and how to do it... No BS, there is
very real and legit guidelines in this book that will work. Scott knows what he
is talking about.
Perfect for an Australian or if you live in Australia.
That said, I am not Australian nor do I live in Australia! However, with a bit
of work I can adapt his ideas to myself here in New Zealand (the actual best
country in the world!) but it will just take a bit more work for me to figure
out how things work here.
The steps are much the same though.
This book is worth the time you spend with it... Especially if you live in
Australia, the 2nd best country in the world, maybe the 3rd. Definitely no lower
than 5th!

SOME USEFUL TIPS AND OTHERS NOT SO GOOD
Some little useful tips. Easy to listen to and not boring. Some illogical tips
(e.g. change banks because the big 4 all charge fees amounting to an average of
almost $500 a year; gives an example of these fees 3 times and each time it's
the same - you get charged $2 whenever you withdraw from an atm not belonging to
your bank. I don't know about you but I don't do this 240 times a year. Checked
my bank for fees just to make sure and there are absolutely zero. He also says
the interest rates aren't that good with the big 4, and that is a good reason to
switch, but not the fees. Giving that as an example was a really illogical way
to start the book and made me wary)
Some tips that don't weigh up. (e.g. when he talks about not buying an
investment property and gives the example of how much someone lost by doing so
he forgets to take into account the rent the person received. He totals up the
fees over the years the person had the property and they amount to $100,000 and
says she'll have to sell the property for that much more than she bought it for
to just break even).
Also, not a fan of all these different bank accounts he says to make for this
and that. It makes it so much more complicated than it needs to be. Much easier
to keep it all in one good interest account and make sure there's enough there
for emergencies (which he calls mojo) etc.
Also, he continually brings up how he had a fire and lost his house and had to
start from scratch. But at one point he says he had insurance for all that and
was handed a very large payout. So honestly he never had to use his "fire
extinguisher" and start again with nothing.
He tries to be funny and often his humour is crude. It's quite distasteful but
easy to overlook as he speaks quickly.
Apart from all these things, I still learnt a thing or two.

LOVED IT!
Brilliant advice in simple terms. I genuinely feel in control after following
Scott's (Barefoot's) steps. It's early days and we have a long way to go before
we are debt free and start saving money and boosting super, but we are on our
way and because everything's on autopilot there's no worries! Thanks Barefoot

loved this. cant wait to get the barefoor steps in place. ive ordered a hard
copy to reference from but i really recommend listening to it first. being read
by scott himself makes it feel more personal and fun.
if i had picked up the hard copy first i dont think i would have been as excited
by the concept.

YEESH.... THIS GUY IS PAINFUL
Some great tips on this but his rampant sexism and borderline racist jokes and
condescending tone are too much to bear at times. His Kanye west impression made
me immediately stop listening. Took me a week to get back into listening to it.
He would have been better served taking a slightly different tone. His normie
Aussie battler vibe is super painful and forced. Treats the reader like a
complete idiot and plays into stereotypes. But... battle through it and you'll
get a good blueprint for how to set yourself up a lot better. I would recommend
borrowing the book from the library and making notes while avoiding the
sanctimonious preaching and larrikin -isms. Super helpful book though!

TOTAL GUIDE TO FINANCIAL HAPPINESS!
I've now listened to many books on making your own wealth, financial freeedom
and the likes. Scott has put basically everything I have heard so far into one
book, simplified it and then gone 10 steps further by filling in literally all
the gaps. Making this the most comprehensive and enjoyable money book I've come
across. I don't have the paper copy, but that is on the short list to get, I
think having a physical copy to resort to would be like having a set of
instructions for life in general "PRICELESS!"
Well done Scott, nailed it!

WHAT RUBBISH
The advice given is complete nonsense. As a stock investor for over 20 years
this goes against what I have learned.
The book seems to emphasize saving money - but has a strange way of doing it .
Don't waste your time listening to this. Get a good non-advisory stockbroking
account and start trading with small amounts.
Follow the Masters like Warren Buffet - NOT this person.

GREAT MOTIONVATIONAL BOOK BUT CONFUSING STRATEGY..
which is it? index fund, LIC, or his stock picking newsletter? Starts by saying
index fund is cheap and performs better over time, dont pay people who think
they can outpeform, by the end we need to pay him to tell us what stocks to
purchase? dont buy property but look at my property portfolio...? everyone else
is doing it wrong, im the only one doing it the right way... enjoyed the first
half, second half was a con job to sell the cult and charge more money.

great practical advice for those who are struggling and also those who think
they're on the right track and need a bit of motivation and inspiration. I was
raised on good money management in a low income family and found this really
motivational to keep at my goals.

SURE IT'S AN AUSSIE BOOK BUT--
Most of The Barefoot Investor is sound advice. Yes, tax laws, investing
particulars, home buying is somewhat different, but the majority of the theory
is applicable anywhere. Plant. Grow. Harvest.
Making a date night with your partner weekly then monthly to specifically talk
about financial issues and what dreams y'all have. Eradicating debt. Not being
afraid of the stock market (which was a huuuuge one for me. Pape points out how,
despite recessions/depressions/wars, things just bounce back. Period.). Buying
your own home, but if you're renting, that's okay--just start saving as much of
the difference between what you'd be paying in mortgage and taxes and rent as
you possibly can. Determining your retirement number/age based on your savings
(without spazzing about being older and nowhere near there).
I'm a finance idiot, so this is where I'm coming from as I write this review. I
know Audible has a plethora of money-savvy people, so Pape's info might not be
extraordinarily mind-blowing. But hey: Anything that makes me stop
hyperventilating when I consider my financial situation? Well, that's definitely
worth the barely 6+ hours listening time...!

GREAT FINANCIAL ADVICE ... FOR AUSSIES
As an American, I was skeptical over how much of this book would actually apply
to me. However, even though there were differences (like between a superfund and
401(k) / IRA) there were still a lot of good tidbits ... and some great ones.
I highly recommend the book, even if you're not Australian. You just may have to
do some work how it exactly applies to you.

BLOODY MARVELOUS!
I’ve spent the last few years since having kids organising my family’s finances
and investing so I thought I had it pretty much down. There was a lot in the
book that did affirm that I was on the right track, but it also gave more than
just an opportunity to pat myself on the back; hints and tips for improving what
I’m currently doing and a real (and achievable) way to plan for the future.
Lastly, think your finances are boring? Try saying that after the audio book!
Author and narrator, Scott Pape’s natural enthusiasm will get you started and
EXCITED about sorting your money out.
Recommend to everyone!

LOVE IT!
I'm a middle class working woman who while not in debt (except the mortgages) I
definitely don't have a plan and I've avoided looking at my finances like the
plague because it was too confusing and boring.
This book clears up much of my confusion and gives me the confidence I need to
move forward into the fall of my life without fear.
Thanks Scott!
Now I'm going to listen again!

HONEST AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND
Thanks Scott. I have already implemented ur teachings. I tried to negotiate my
mortgage rate but the bank refused to budge. I have more than 80% equity. But
hey, thanks to you advice on cash back mortgage brokers, I have ditched my bank.
I'm now on my way to getting $1000 or more back each year and paying less on my
mortgage! Trailing commisions are awesome...especially when they are paid to me
instead of the typical mortagage broker!

BRILLIANT, INSPIRING, AND VERY, VERY PRACTICAL
Scott is a brilliant writer and an inspiring narrator. Monday this week, a
friend recommended "The Barefoot Investor". Before Monday, I had no idea money
can - and needs to - be managed. I was just too busy working, and there was a
constant low-grade worry about what's gonna happen if I lose my job. Today is
Friday, I have finished listening to the book, and I know exactly what to do,
step by step, to never worry about money again. Simply amazing.

GIVE ME MY TIME BACK!
Here's you after listening to this book: This book is specific for Aussies
Here's me: True, about half of the book is useless in other countries
Here's you: But the book is sold on Audible UK, for people in UK and Europe
Here's me: True
Here's you: The least he could do is addapt the part about SUPER and bank
account taxes to other countries, the rest of it is good
Here's me: Yes, the least they could do is that. Some of the other ideas like
monthly dates and the bucket and fire hose stuff are useful.
Here's you: But that's not enough for what they charge and how much time it
wastes for people to listen about this useless stuff
Here's me: That's right, the 3 hours wasted listening to how Aussie banks screw
Aussies are not coming back. You should know that before you start listening
Here's you: It feels disrespectful to my time, never mind the attempt at
childish humor with the "here's you"/"here's me" lines
Here's me: you should ask for a refund. Maybe that will make them put a clear
note in the description that 50% of the book is useless if you don't live and
work in Austalia.
Here's you: Yes, I should ask for a refund! If only I could get the 3 hours of
my life back, I could use them to listen to something else. They should pay for
that too, shameless marketing!
Here's me: Yes, they should, but they won't, because the editor that made the
description is as worse as the Australian bankers.

DEFINITE LISTEN FOR AUSSIES
I live in the UK, so there's a fair amount of information that isn't relevant
geographically BUT the strategies for savings and expenditure are relevant
regardless of where you live and can be implemented if you're willing to take
responsibility for your present, your future and, if you have or are planning to
have family, the future of your children and teaching them great financial
behaviours!!

I LIVE IN THE UK BUT THE PRINCIPLES IN THIS BOOK RING TRUE, LOUD AND CLEAR.
I am in love with this book. The principles behind the advice can be applied
anywhere in the world. Sure, there are a few things that you can’t do if you
don’t live in Australia, but I fully intend to translate those bits into things
I CAN do in the U.K., using these principles. The best finance book I’ve ever
read. Scott is entertaining, candid, and straight forward to follow. 10/10. Read
this book!

SPECIFIC TO AUSTRALIA, BUT RECOMMENDED READ ANYWAY
I found this book through a friend's recommendation and didn't know what to
expect, but the phrase 'barefoot date nights' stuck in my mind too, so I gave it
a try.
This is a pretty fun read compared to other finance books.
Although Scott Pape focuses on Australian solutions, it's still a good read for
anyone who wants to get a better understanding of money management. Maybe even
better in hard copy though as the doodles help you grasp the concept.
I like the idea of Barefoot Date Nights, however, I couldn't follow the rules
exactly. If you're listening from outside of Australia like me, you'll probably
have to adjust his suggestions to your situation. Still, it can put you on track
and that's what matters. Pape's performance is quite good too, he uses a really
human tone and holds the attention throughout the whole guide. Worth reading.

HERE'S YOU: AUSTRALIA-CENTRIC ADVICE.
Here's Me: You're insufferable.
The book shouldn't be available outside of Australia. The content for an
Australian audience is sound but fairly basic. Advice in the book for a
international market could be a great blog post but it's stretched out among the
Australian content and packaged in an insufferable, patronising Here's You,
Here's Me: format.
Don't bother if you're not in Australia.

FINANCIAL PLAYBOOK FOR AUSTRALIAN FEMINISTS
Despite the review title this book is actually okay in parts. It does provide
some decent information on how to overcome debt but the section on investments
and property were lacking. It's clear his target audience are women with how he
calls men "chauvinistic pigs" and bashes Trump despite it not being relevant at
all. If you are not based in Australia you will find a lot of the information
irrelevant also.

GOOD IDEAS
seems like has good info for Australia, I listened from the UK so not so helpful
as a lot of what's discussed is specific to Australia. good mantras to aim for
though.

DEFINITELY AIMED AT THE AUSSIE MARKET
Really enjoyable read/listen. Scott tells it like it is, and pulls few punches.
The material is Aussicentric talking directly about Super (superannuation)
however all of the structures & philosophy can easily be rolled out worldwide. A
low tech approach to securing yourself and those you care about financially. And
yes, your plan can be written on a napkin. Keep it simple stupid! I recommend
having a listen.
