What’s your recommendation for a straightforward, up-to-date personal finance book? I know there’s recommendations in the wiki, but I feel like a lot of books seem to have a gimmick, or at least some angle they’re focusing on.

If I book separate tickets, will I have to go through TSA again for my checked bag? ​ I am flying to Athens Greece in June and am so confused about tickets. I can fly from CLT to ATL, and then ATL to Greece, all on the same airline, and save about $400 if I book the tickets separately. However, a similar flight that is booked together is significantly more expensive. I will be traveling with a carry-on AND a checked bag, and I …

Book recommendation for young adults? My wife and I have been financially illiterate for our whole adult working lives.

Travels I need to book way ahead of time I recently did a trek to Hang Son Doong in Vietnam. It’s the largest cave in the world, was first explored only in 2009, and has strict limits on the number of tourists a year (around 1,000).
