I gave up on this audiobook after a couple of minutes because the voice felt too robotic and it was really hard to follow the idea of the first chapter.

I'll check the printed version instead

The content is easily found through Google as it's to superficial, there's too much filler with the bio section as well.

Besides, there's no edition at all, it's awful to listen the narrator coughing and repeating the same words and phrases over and over; it's not his fault, but this audiobook is pretty bad.

It's great to learn from someone who has gone through the whole process of making a videogame; there are some parts that might be boring but necessary (legal stuff).

Also, the narration from YongYea is awesome, I truly enjoyed this book and I'll repeat it from time to time.

I liked the book, it's not perfect but it's very good and helped me to reconnect with Fasting.

I Will Teach You to Be Rich Audiobook By Ramit Sethi cover art

Not the typical teacher...

Would you listen to I Will Teach You to Be Rich again? Why?

Yes, because it holds great ideas about money, rich life, and self-knowledge.

What about Ramit Sethi’s performance did you like?

His tone and enthusiasm communicating his own ideas is priceless...

Any additional comments?

Despite the "heavy" section about investment allocation at the end, the whole book is easy to digest and its content is very valuable for those who decide to take control of their money... even if they aren't in the USA (neither do I and I still believe that is useful advice)

What made the experience of listening to Soft Skills: The Software Developer's Life Manual the most enjoyable?

Hearing John Sonmez transmitting his own ideas in the proper tone and pace is great!

What does John Sonmez bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The tone and pace is great... ideas are communicated clearly and with enthusiasm

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Actually no, it needs to be digested and repeated a couple of times (which I will)

Any additional comments?

Mainly for (but not limited to) Software Developers... is a great book, excellent content and through audio format can be enjoyed several times... 100% recommended...

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Many topics but poor depth, not so engaging tone...

How could the performance have been better?

Mike's voice gets hard to understand from the beginning and his pace (or lack of) makes even more difficult to enjoy the book.

Any additional comments?

Go read his blog (I found it really good actually) and save your time on money on this book.
