The Psychology of Money: Timeless lessons on wealth, greed, and happiness

**OVER 8 MILLION COPIES SOLD AROUND THE WORLD… The Psychology of Money is the original bestselling classic from the author of the new book, Same as Ever.**

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 different ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life’s most important topics.

I am disappointed. I really wanted to like this book, but I got very little helpful insight from the revelations, advice or information therein.

Simple read for anyone interested in investing and how money impacts our society. The author uses story telling to explain why we should save and invest. Money is not about money but is a mirror for our egos.

After the first 2O short chapters he does a great job of correlating world war 2 and how it impacted our finances and way of thinking about credit cards and investing in 2020.

I am never comfortable enough talking about money in the way some people are not comfortable talking about their weight. But this book helps start the conversation within myself.
