Thank you for awakening me. Incidentally, for last two months I had been trying on my own to discipline my spending when I came across your book. However, I clearly feel a need for expert help.

There are no calculators available in India regarding withdrawal. How much money to be kept in each asset class, when to rebalance, which specific instrument to buy - all this could have been incorporated in the book. Have not seen any other author tackle it.

A few things I would've expected to see were 1. All figures in lakhs and crores rather than millions 2. A couple of pages on important formulas and when they need to be used...some examples talk about how the numbers were arrived but not completely 3. Proof-reading / verifying that all values were correct; there are some mistakes in the tables / numbers (towards the end)...don't have the book handy with me now, otherwise would've quoted examples It is definitely written in a simple manner that most people can understand. Overall a good book that will hopefully help people in getting their finances in shape. I too have read the book and liked it especially on some of the simple but yet lateral thinking.
