About this listen
A common-sense guide to living rich—instead of dying rich
Imagine if by the time you died, you did everything you were told to. You worked hard, saved your money, and looked forward to financial freedom when you retired.
The only thing you wasted along the way was—your life.
Die with Zero presents a startling new and provocative philosophy as well as practical guide on how to get the most out of your money—and out of your life. It's intended for those who place lifelong memorable experiences far ahead of simply making and accumulating money for one's so-called Golden Years.
In short, Bill Perkins wants to rescue you from over-saving and under-living. Regardless of your age, Die with Zero will teach you Perkins' plan for optimizing your life, stage by stage, so you're fully engaged and enjoying what you've worked and saved for.
You'll discover how to maximize your lifetime memorable moments with experience bucketing, how to convert your earnings into priceless memories by following your net worth curve, and find out how to navigate whether to invest in, or delay, a meaningful adventure based on your spend curve and personal interest rate.
Using his own life experiences as well as the inspiring stories and cautionary tales of others—and drawing on eye-opening insights about time, money, and happiness from psychological science and behavioral finance—Perkins makes a timely, convincing, and contrarian case for living large.

Enlightening and very enjoyable
The author breaks down an alternative view on personal finance in easy to understand language. A game changer for me.

Could have been a blog post
Not very much insight can be drawn from this book. It came highly recommended from various online sources but it was rather disappointing. Here’s what you need to know: don’t focus on just piling up money but also enjoy it. Also leave money to your kids when they need it (in their 30s) rather then when you die. Of course it is also a book that is mostly aplicable to a select wealthy elite. For most of people it might seem unrelatable

It’s very thought provoking.
Life is the acquisitions of memories! A completely different way of thinking about work /life/ balance.

Nothing like any other book that I have read….challenging but brilliant!!!!
Well written although the narration is slightly wooden. Completely challenged my view on wealth and how to live my life. I have taken so much away from this book. Highly recommended!!!!

Stimulating. Worthwhile. Recommended.
I wish I had read this book earlier in my life (I'm 63 now). It is having an immediate impact on the way I live my life.

Fantastic book depending on your circumstances.
This is a great book with some really interesting ideas and thoughts on how and when to spend your money vs saving or investing it.
It's aimed more towards those people that save all their money, so if you don't have much disposable income, or already spend everything you earn, then it's probably not for you.
But if you're a high earner, and save far more than you spend this is for you, get it now, is a short book and well worth it.
