Unshakeable: Your Financial Freedom Playbook

This book is an easy read, perfect for beginners starting their investing journey. If you're aiming for financial freedom, this book is a must-read!

This is the 4th book written by Tony Robbins that I have read. He's a great writer.

There are a few books that I have read, and even before I finished them, realized that they changed something significant about my life. Unshakeable: Your FInancial Freedom Playbook by Tony Robbins is one of those.It wasn’t that the principles here are new to me. The concepts are actually pretty simple to grasp.Don’t operate out of fear, or invest according to emotion. Make your decisions based on logic.Invest for the long term. Compounding interest always wins.Minimize tax liability and fees.Diversify to protect yourself when down times come.Invest more when everything is on sale.Rebalance your investments, preferably annually.Just because I shared these basic highlights does not mean you do not need to read the book. Far from it. They absolutely mean you need to read it, because all of the principles in the list make sense, and you can know you should do them, but unless you know how, that knowledge is useless.You could flounder about on your own: I have done so most of my life. You can remake the mistakes others have made, and learn on your own. But that will be (and has been) an expensive choice.You can sit on the sidelines, living in fear and keeping your assets and investments in cash rather than getting into investing at all. This is the surest way to lose, especially with today’s low interest rates.Or you can instead learn from the masters. Read Tony’s book and not only will you learn from him, but you will learn from those he has known and worked with, some of the wealthiest and most successful investors on the planet. You will also learn how to choose a financial advisor of your own, where to set up your retirement funds and how, and even more.I can’t say enough about this book, but I can’t leave the review without talking about the final chapter, something I have been talking about and trying to master the last few years. Tony tells you of his journey and gives you his advice about how to be personally wealthy--in a beautiful state rather than a suffering state no matter what your circumstances.This takes a disciplined mind, and it is only a disciplined mind that will follow the advice outlined in this book. The biggest obstacle to your success in any area is you, and this book will teach you how to overcome that in more than just your finances.Five stars. Well done. Well edited and written. If you don’t read another book about building wealth and finances this year, make reading this one a top priority. You won’t regret it.

I wasn't very familiar with Tony Robbins until I watched a documentary about him on Netflix called I Am Not Your Guru. Yowza, that thing is crazy! I went from seeing Robbins as slightly weird and cheesy to seeing him as, well, still slightly weird but also...intriguing. I mean, the guy has presence, straight up. You can't help but be drawn to him. And he has interesting things to say in a unique way. That documentary definitely put him on my radar.So I saw this book and decided to give it a read, not really knowing what to expect. After finishing it, I realize I probably should have started with a different book. Unshakeable is short (unlike many of his others), but it's both a rehash of a book he wrote in 2014 called Money: Master the Game, as well as a teaser (it sounds like) for a book he's in the process of writing about gratitude and fulfillment. But apparently he wanted to write a shorter book summarizing Money: Master the Game in order to reach more people and help prevent them from being taken advantage of financially.The book is divided into three sections. Section 1 talks about basic money "rules." He explains financial terms, talks about the importance of investing in the stock market, explains the surprisingly predictable timing of market fluctuations over the years, and--most eye-opening for me--discusses all the hidden fees people end up paying, especially in 401(k)s. (Yikes, I had no idea.)Section 2 talks about financial plans: the importance of avoiding financial loss, risk to reward ratios, taxes, and diversification. Much of this section is written by Robbins's coauthor, Peter Mallouk, a top financial advisor in the industry. And Section 3 talks about the psychology of wealth--basically how and why you should control your mind so that you don't, say, panic and sell everything when the market tanks.Despite the fact that this book is simply the shorter "companion" to Money: Master the Game, I still learned a lot from it. And though I hate to admit to being upsold, I'm intrigued enough by this book to want to check out the 650-page tome it's based on. Robbins just knows how to tell a story and make generic, somewhat boring information seem relevant and exciting to us common folk on a very personal level. He's got skills, no doubt about it. But, to be fair, he also has good information to share, too. I read a lot of financial books and magazines, but I've never heard anyone talk about planning for retirement the way he does in here. It makes sense, and I appreciate the fresh perspective.So, yes, Tony, you sold me. I'll go read your giant Money: Master the Game book. And I'll probably read your next book on gratitude or whatever it is. I'm hooked. No point in fighting it.

Thanks for reviewing my comments. I purchased this book for gaining knowledge in stock investment, but I got more satisfaction and happiness from chapters 9. I am certainly confident that as buyer you will get more money and personal happiness of purchasing this book. THANKS for Amazon and Tony Robbins.

Excellent book - very easy to read and understand investing concepts.

lo compre como regalo y me lo terminaron regresando para que yo lo leyera y la verdad esta muy padre. si lo recomiendo 10/10

A great book, making easy to understand the complexity of finances. Super insightful. Whether you are starting as an investor or you are already well established, you will find what you need to bring your finances to the next level.

Indispensável leitura para todos os investidores especialmente os buy and hold. Aqui Tony Robbins analisa a importância do aspecto emocional no mundo dos investimentos e a diferença entre um investidor que vende nos piores momentos e o que compra nos piores momentos. O livro demonstra através de estatísticas do período de 1900 até a atualidade que quem ficou com suas ações e principalmente comprou nas piores crísis foram os que se saíram melhor. É de fácil leitura, bem escrito e as informações são indispensáveis para quem investe no valor das empresas. É aquele livro de cabeceira para reler sempre que nos depararmos com um bearmarket. Nas crises segure seus papeis, se puder compre mais, cuide as taxas de corretagem e saiba que a cada 3 a 5 anos a bolsa vai cair queira você queira quer não, as suas atitudes nessas situações de estresse que vão fazer ganhar dinheiro ou perder.
