Millennial Apocalyp$e by Zane E Brown and Dr. Donalee Brown sounds fascinating and enlightening. Indeed, overconfidence is one trait that characterizes many millennials. I have added this to my shelf and hope to enjoy poring over it. It is true that the direct use of second-person pronouns to refer to the reader creates some distance. Thanks for pointing this out.

I have a special preference for books whose chapters begin with quotes; they enrich the reading experience and make me always look forward to the next quote. Thanks for the review.

This book is suitable for those who are interested in building sustainable investment and retirement plans. What's more amazing are the fact that the author did some research first before writing the book. I like it.

I am not a millennial, so this book isn't applicable to me. I also quit working in 2009, so my interaction with millennials in the workplace was limited. I am intrigued to learn about those unique millennial traits mentioned in the review.

Zane E. Brown and Dr. Donalee Brown's research-based book, Millennial Apocalyp$e, examines the variables influencing millennials' financial choices. The author's thoughts are rationally expressed and supported by previous studies and periodicals. Although I think the book's premise is fantastic and your review is extremely interesting, I'm not really into the book. I'll pass on this, then. Congratulations on BOTD, author.

This is not something I would read. All that the author states makes perfect sense but each person/family had to adjust to these financially strained circumstances the best way they could with what the had. Not everyone earns the same so each person 'needs' have to adjust the best they know how. Great review though.

Your review has given me a good glimpse of what is is in the book, and I must say it is good. I agree so far, especially the part about millennials wanting instant gratification. It's good to have someone giving such economic wisdom at a time like this. Thank you for the review
