About this listen

“Accounting is the language of business” Warren Buffett Accounting is one of the most useful subjects you can know. It is the fundamental engine of the modern world and the tool set behind every fortune. Ignore it at your peril. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a German writer and statesman and one of the most brilliant people to ever live. He was considered by Einstein to be 'the last man in the world to know everything,' Goethe called double entry accounting "among the finest inventions of the human mind." Accounting is the most fundamental part of any business. You need to have a grasp of its concepts and workings before venturing forth in any enterprise. This book provides that knowledge quickly, clearly, and directly in less than 100 pages. This is useful knowledge delivered ASAP. Any really useful working knowledge provides an understanding of a few general principles with a basic grounding in how they apply in various situations. With this book and the inexpensive accounting software now available you can keep your own business accounting records. Or if you hire an accountant you will be able to effectively communicate with them. If your dream is to start a business, take this practical step and draw it closer. If you are running a business, read this and get familiar with the accounting ASAP! There are also lots of careers in accounting and this book will give you the basic knowledge to apply for bookkeeping and accounting related jobs. Your intention to learn is the first step. Purchasing this book is the second step. Journeys start with initial steps. But they are of no use to you unless you read it, comprehend the ideas, internalize the concepts and put them to work. By keeping the book short and succinct and focusing on the big picture and the important concepts, my hope is that you will find it a manageable task to read through it first quickly and then maybe again more thoughtfully until you own this subject. It’s a five to ten hour commitment. You can do it in a week! John is an author of over 20 books, blogger, podcaster, online course creator, investor, inventor, entrepreneur and musician.

Good for review of basic accounting principles

A brief breakdown of the important accounting terms and principles. I’m taking a class in accounting principles and this covered it in an easy to digest way. One challenge was not seeing the formulas and financial statement examples that were referenced in the audio but overall a good listen and review to get the real learning started. I look forward to practicing accounting so the concepts stick better.
