No More Ramen: The 20-Something’s Real World Survival Guide author Nicholas Aretakis is a successful entrepreneur who spends a significant amount of time mentoring young people faced with the reality of transitioning from college to real life. This book provides practical and valuable tips for getting handle on the many important decisions that young adults must make as they transition to the world of adulthood.
More than just a guide for career success, this book taps into all aspects of what young people need to consider at the outset of their careers. The book does provide practical advice for how to find a great job, but it goes far beyond job search and selection strategies. Readers can glean important tips that can help them become financially independent. For example, the book clearly points out the implications of allowing credit card debt to build, enabling readers to fully grasp the importance of debt reduction.
This book was written with input from young people, and it is clearly written from the perspective of an author who really “gets” what today’s young people are faced with as they move into the world of work. This book is going on my holiday shopping list. I’m not in my twenties anymore, but I have a niece who is. She can expect to find No More Ramen: The 20-Something’s Real World Survival Guide in her holiday stocking this year!
