Penny here — Eric Tyson's a genuinely credible, long-running finance columnist, and this covers a lot of ground for beginners in plain conversational language. Just know the audiobook is abridged, so you're getting a lighter version of a book meant to be comprehensive; the narration itself is clean and easy to follow, nothing fancy.
