Publisher Description
Doing well with money isn’t necessarily about what you know. It’s about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people.
Money—investing, personal finance, and business decisions—is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.
In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life’s most important topics.
Customer Reviews
A recommended book that everybody should read
I found the book to be simple and enjoyable to read. What stood out to me was the author discuss how those with money do understand the psychology of money. Just because you earn $10 million dollars annual does not mean you’re wealthy. Yes you are rich by face value but behind the scenes where are you spending, saving, and investing that money is the true question. And also how much taxes are being taken out from that $10 million. I like that the author used real life people who were in precarious positions in their life financially and either had to pivoted to stay afloat or sink.
Not bad At alll
