Kochie's Guide to Keeping it Real
David Koch Β· 2006
58/100
π Skip It
David Koch's Sunrise persona carries real warmth into this book, and the cradle-to-grave frame is a useful organizing principle for blending life milestones with financial planning. But nearly two decades of inflation, tax changes, and market shifts have made much of the specific financial advice unreliable, and the Australian specificity means almost no value travels beyond that market.
