If You Can: How Millennials Can Get Rich Slowly

Book Review

William Bernstein’s «If You Can» is an elegant and wise guide for those just beginning their journey in the world of personal finance. The author, gifted with the rare ability to explain complex things in a simple and vivid way, invites the reader into a trusting conversation free of arrogance or lecturing. Bernstein skillfully builds his narrative, step by step revealing the essence of long-term investing, warning against the traps of greed and panic, and inspiring independent thinking. Critics note the book’s conciseness and practicality, its honesty and lack of illusions: there are no promises of easy riches here, but there is deep respect for the reader and their future. «If You Can» is not just a collection of tips, but a kind of compass to help you stay on course in the stormy sea of financial temptations. This book is a rare example of financial literature that is not only useful, but truly humane.
