Perfect for you if...

You're a high earner who's optimised everything except actually living, and you're starting to wonder if your retirement plan is just a very long wait.
You've achieved financial stability but suspect you're leaving experiences on the table because you were taught never to waste money.
You want permission and a framework to spend on the things that matter most, without guilt or the nagging feeling you're being irresponsible.

Maybe not for you if...

You're struggling with basic finances or living paycheque to paycheque. This book assumes you've already built a stable foundation.
You find happiness primarily in accumulation and status symbols rather than experiences and memories.
You're deeply uncomfortable with unconventional thinking about money, even if it's backed by data and real examples.

About this book

Die with Zero presents a philosophy and practical guide for prioritizing life experiences over wealth accumulation. Bill Perkins argues against over-saving and under-living, addressing those who value memorable experiences more than accumulating money for retirement. The book offers a stage-by-stage plan for optimizing your life regardless of age. Perkins introduces specific frameworks including "experience bucketing" to maximize memorable moments, a "net worth curve" to convert earnings into memories, and a "spend curve" and "personal interest rate" to help decide when to invest in or delay meaningful adventures. Drawing on his own life experiences, stories from others, and insights from psychological science and behavioral finance, Perkins makes a case for reconsidering the traditional approach to saving and retirement planning.
