Most personal finance advice online is written for Americans. It assumes a 401(k), a Roth IRA, an employer match, a tax system that only exists in the US. If you live anywhere else, you read the whole article and close the tab with nothing you can actually do.

The First Dollar is different. It’s built around the principles that work everywhere (compounding, inflation, risk, diversification) and then shows you how to find the equivalent tools wherever you live, from provident funds in Asia to UCITS funds that avoid US withholding tax and estate exposure.

36 pages. No jargon left unexplained. A month-by-month plan for your first year, starting from wherever you are right now.

What’s inside:

• Why nobody taught you this, and why it’s not your fault
• What waiting 10 years actually costs, with real numbers
• The saving system that works with any bank, in any country
• What investing actually means, stripped of jargon
• Your options wherever you live: a country-by-country breakdown
• The traps that cost young earners the most
• A 12-month roadmap from zero to your first investment
