Paperback. "It's just 290 a month." Before you say yes to a payment, a lease or a job offer, ask five questions: Purpose, Cost, Risk, Exit, Fit. The Money Choice Method works in any country. It won't tell you your country's rules; it shows you how to find them.In the book, that 290 a month turns into 540 extra on a 3,000 camera, and a 480 shortfall in a slow month. It is the kind of choice that comes up when you start out: a job offer with a pay figure and a page of small print, a friend who wants you to sign as guarantor, a message that promises a guaranteed return. You usually have to choose fast.It is a practical personal finance guide for anyone starting out or starting over, at any age: a first job, a first loan, a first apartment, a fresh start, or a move to a new city or country. It also fits lives that don't match standard advice: freelancers and gig workers with irregular income, people supporting family, and newcomers finding their feet in a new country. The rules change at every border. Your way of deciding shouldn't.The examples use made-up "units" and invented people, so nothing dates when rates change and the method travels with you when you move. Where a real rate or rule matters, you learn to find it, judge it and keep it in a personal look-up map.The five questions: Purpose: What is this for?Cost: What does it really cost?Risk: What could go wrong, and how badly?Exit: How easily can I get out or get my money back?Fit: Does it suit my life?Exit, the fourth question, asks you to plan your way out before you sign.Inside, you will learn how to: compare job offers and read a payslip by what you actually take homeplan around a low month, build a payday routine, and size a savings buffer (often called an emergency fund)test a loan, credit card or buy now, pay later plan before you sign, and spot scams and risky betsfind and judge the real rates, fees and rules where you live, and handle money with family, friends and roommates, including guaranteessettle into a new place with a first-90-days checklist, and turn it all into a plan for your first yearEach chapter opens with a short story, shows the five questions at work on a worked example, and ends with a practical exercise.

"It's just 290 a month." Before you say yes to a payment, a lease or a job offer, ask five questions: Purpose, Cost, Risk, Exit, Fit. The Money Choice Method works in any country. It won't tell you your country's rules; it shows you how to find them.
In the book, that 290 a month turns into 540 extra on a 3,000 camera, and a 480 shortfall in a slow month. It is the kind of choice that comes up when you start out: a job offer with a pay figure and a page of small print, a friend who wants you to sign as guarantor, a message that promises a guaranteed return. You usually have to choose fast.
It is a practical personal finance guide for anyone starting out or starting over, at any age: a first job, a first loan, a first apartment, a fresh start, or a move to a new city or country. It also fits lives that don't match standard advice: freelancers and gig workers with irregular income, people supporting family, and newcomers finding their feet in a new country. The rules change at every border. Your way of deciding shouldn't.
The examples use made-up "units" and invented people, so nothing dates when rates change and the method travels with you when you move. Where a real rate or rule matters, you learn to find it, judge it and keep it in a personal look-up map.
The five questions:
- Purpose: What is this for?
- Cost: What does it really cost?
- Risk: What could go wrong, and how badly?
- Exit: How easily can I get out or get my money back?
- Fit: Does it suit my life?
Exit, the fourth question, asks you to plan your way out before you sign.
Inside, you will learn how to:
- compare job offers and read a payslip by what you actually take home
- plan around a low month, build a payday routine, and size a savings buffer (often called an emergency fund)
- test a loan, credit card or buy now, pay later plan before you sign, and spot scams and risky bets
- find and judge the real rates, fees and rules where you live, and handle money with family, friends and roommates, including guarantees
- settle into a new place with a first-90-days checklist, and turn it all into a plan for your first year
Each chapter opens with a short story, shows the five questions at work on a worked example, and ends with a practical exercise. The back of the book has a decision worksheet, look-up templates, a glossary, a scam checklist you can keep on your phone, and a first-90-days checklist for a new place.

You don't need to know everything about money. You need a better way to decide.

Diritto di recesso
Se sei un consumatore puoi recedere dal contratto in conformità con quanto segue. Per Consumatore si intende qualsiasi persona fisica che agisce per scopi estranei alla propria attività commerciale, imprenditoriale, artigianale o professionale.
Informazioni sul diritto di recesso
Diritto legale di recesso
Hai il diritto di recedere dal presente contratto entro 14 giorni senza fornire alcuna motivazione.
Il periodo di recesso scade dopo 14 giorni dal giorno in cui tu o una terza parte, diversa dal vettore e da te indicata, acquisisce il possesso fisico dell'ultimo bene o dell'ultimo lotto o pezzo.
Per esercitare il diritto di recesso, compila e invia elettronicamente una dichiarazione esplicita sul nostro sito Web, alla voce “I miei acquisti” nella sezione “Mio account”. Ti comunicheremo senza indugio una conferma di ricezione di tale recesso su un supporto durevole (ad es. via e-mail).
Per rispettare il termine di recesso, è sufficiente inviare la comunicazione relativa all'esercizio del diritto di recesso prima della scadenza del periodo di recesso stesso.
Effetti del recesso
In caso di recesso dal presente contratto, ti rimborseremo tutti i pagamenti ricevuti, compresi i costi di spedizione (ad eccezione dei costi supplementari derivanti dalla tua eventuale scelta di un tipo di spedizione diverso dal tipo meno costoso di consegna standard da noi offerto).
Potremo effettuare una detrazione dal rimborso per la perdita di valore dei beni forniti, qualora tale perdita sia il risultato di una manipolazione non necessaria da parte tua.
Eseguiremo il rimborso senza indebito ritardo e non oltre 14 giorni dal giorno in cui saremo informati della tua decisione di recedere dal presente contratto.
Il rimborso sarà effettuato utilizzando lo stesso mezzo di pagamento da te usato per la transazione iniziale, salvo che tu non abbia espressamente concordato altrimenti; in ogni caso, non dovrai sostenere alcun costo quale conseguenza di tale rimborso.
Possiamo trattenere il rimborso finché non avremo ricevuto i beni oppure finché non avrai fornito la prova di averli rispediti, a seconda di quale condizione si verifichi per prima.
Dovrai rispedire i beni o consegnarli a Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., senza indebito ritardo e, in ogni caso, entro 14 giorni dal giorno in cui ci hai comunicato la tua volontà di recedere dal presente contratto. Il termine è rispettato se rispedisci i beni prima della scadenza del periodo di 14 giorni. I costi diretti della restituzione dei beni saranno a tuo carico. Sei responsabile solo della diminuzione del valore dei beni risultante da una manipolazione diversa da quella necessaria per stabilire la natura, le caratteristiche e il funzionamento dei beni stessi.

- La fornitura di giornali, periodici o riviste ad eccezione dei contratti di abbonamento; e
- La fornitura di contenuto digitale non fornito su un supporto materiale (ad es. su un CD o DVD), se al momento dell'invio dell'ordine hai accettato l'inizio dell'esecuzione e hai riconosciuto che non avresti potuto recedere una volta iniziata l'esecuzione.
