Adulting would be easier if taught in schools

When I first moved out on my own, I had no idea how much I didn’t know. Budgeting? Confusing. Credit scores? Mysterious. Career planning? A total guessing game. If you’ve ever felt like adulthood hit you like a freight train, this book is exactly what you need. It covers everything from managing money to job hunting to keeping your mental health in check, things I wish I’d learned years ago. The advice is practical, easy to follow, and doesn’t make you feel like an idiot for not knowing it already. If you’re stepping into adulthood (or know someone who is), this audiobook makes the transition a lot smoother.

Great for Building a Solid Foundation

I recently listened to "Essential Life Skills for Young Adults" and immediately thought of my teenage nephew, Mark. This audiobook is filled with valuable, real-world advice that I wish I had when I was his age. It breaks down important concepts like managing finances, building a credit score, and writing a resume into simple, actionable steps that anyone can follow. Tara Kulkarni does a great job narrating, making it an engaging listen even for younger folks. I'm planning on gifting this to Mark; it’s a superb resource for any teenager preparing to launch into adulthood and build a solid foundation for their future.

Lots of great information

As a Young Adult, I did not receive much encouragement to achieve financial wealth because I did not have the idea. The author also shares some cooking skills to help young adults cook great food and get their driver’s licence. My parents encouraged me to learn how to drive, but I got my license in my 20s, and it was worth knowing. The book provides many ideas to help young adults grow wiser and better than us so we can equip them with all the tools they need to succeed without stress or anxiety. It's highly recommended that people listen to this audiobook.
