Product Description

Timeless truths on wealth, greed, and happiness. Doing well with money isn’t always about what you know. It’s all about your behavior. And behavior is difficult to teach, even to the most intelligent people. How to handle money, invest it, and make business decisions is commonly thought to include a lot of quantitative computations, with facts and formulas telling us exactly what to do. However, in the real world, people do not make financial decisions using a spreadsheet. They are created at the dinner table or in a conference room, when personal history, your unique perspective on the world, ego, pride, marketing, and peculiar incentives are all mixed together. In the psychology of money, the author provides 19 short stories that explore the unique ways people think about money and show you how to make better sense of one of life’s most significant issues.
