The Psychology of Money

Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Greed, and Happiness

Morgan Housel shows that doing well with money depends less on how smart you are and more on how you behave, through short stories about wealth, greed and happiness.

Three big ideas

  1. Behaviour beats knowledgeHow you act with money matters more than how much you know about finance.
  2. Everyone's experience differsPeople make money choices based on what they've lived through, so 'crazy' choices often make sense to them.
  3. Know what is enoughWanting more without limit leads to taking risks you don't need.

Never miss a spark
