Personal financial planning is often considered a complicated and unpleasant topic. It is ignored as long as possible, until the reality of its hold on our life becomes relevant. Unfortunately, by then it may be too much of a rough journey ahead. "An Engineer's Attempt to Explain Personal Finance" includes sustainable concepts that are presented in an easy-to-read format for those who do not have extensive financial backgrounds. This book is intended for all those who work hard to earn a living. Those who are new to the workforce, those who have seen the recent ups and downs in the economy and retirement is on the future horizon, and as those who are at the conclusion of their career and are planning to retire will all benefit from the information presented. The other two books are satire to show that not everything has to be taken seriously. (yes, both books are a bit dated based on recent events)
