As Raffi tells his students, “I want you to have a quarter-life crisis now so that you won’t have a mid-life crisis later.”A MUCH-NEEDED BOOK FOR YOUNG ADULTS: Creator and teacher of the undergraduate college course Adulting 101, Raffi Grinberg crafted a foolproof curriculum that became one of the department’s most in-demand and highest-rated classes. Like his course, this book answers a need for young people who will inevitably discover that most of what they learned in school does not apply to their lives and that the things they need to know most were never taught to them. TIMELY ADVICE FROM A TRUSTED SOURCE: This is not advice from your parents’ generation. Grinberg, now in his thirties, has recently faced some of the present concerns of people in their twenties. This life skills book helps readers unlearn outdated, unrealistic advice with guidance that reflects life’s current realities and opportunities.

This guide proactively teaches young adults fourteen essential skills to avoid these crises in their lives and make the most of their twenties.
