5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand, perfect book for beginner information
Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2022

Insurance can seem like a daunting or extremely difficult thing to understand but this book is the perfect place to start for beginners. Very inexpensive for the information that you can gain with the book, I highly recommend especially if you don’t know much about insurance! It’s important to know what you’re buying when you purchase insurance especially because insurance companies have the ultimate goal to make money.

This book is a must read for everyone who needs insurance (which is everyone!). It does a great job of explaining the different types of insurance and helps the reader figure out what insurance (and how much) is best, without any sales pitch. Insurance can be a daunting topic, but this book is easy to follow and enjoyable to read. Highly recommended!

If you have the slightest clue about insurance, don't waste your money. If you don't know what insurance is, maybe it would be OK. Basic, basic, basic information.

5.0 out of 5 stars I never thought I would say that I enjoyed reading a book about insurance....
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2017
I have always been so frustrated by insurance and the feeling I get that I'm being ripped off without understanding how or why. This book hooked me right from the Preface by really empathizing with insurance novices like myself and communicating the information in a way that is simple, clear and actionable. As an athlete, I appreciate the framing of how to "win" at insurance and I enjoyed the various stories that are woven into each chapter that make the material more personal and relatable. I never thought I would say that I enjoyed reading a book about insurance, but I guess that's what I'm saying! I now feel like I can be a more informed consumer when it comes to buying insurance and I will continue to use this book as a reference throughout the stages of my life as my needs change. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants an unbiased guide to winning at insurance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Read!
Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2017
This book is a must read! I was always confused about insurance and how it worked. This book breaks down insurance to the basics and explains every term and concept thoroughly. It's easy to understand and shows readers the tips, tricks and how to "win at insurance." It was especially helpful for someone like me, who is entering their last year of college and has never learned anything about insurance. Now I am comfortable with the subject and can hold my own when it comes to insurance! This was an enjoyable read and I recommend it to anyone who loves to learn.
