Description

Success in finance is not so much about your intelligence, but about your behavior. And while behavior is difficult to teach, even to the smartest people, Morgan Housel, with the groundbreaking book "The Psychology of Money," comes to change the way we think about wealth, investing, and happiness.

Through 19 fascinating, short stories, the author explores the strange relationship we have with money and teaches us that our financial decisions are driven less by cold calculations and more by psychology, pride, envy, and optimism.

Why We Loved It

Because it does not only focus on technical economic terms, but explains why people behave in specific ways regarding money, which is valuable for understanding and improving personal financial management.

This book is for you if…

  • ...you believe that your relationship with money is influenced more by psychology than by numbers.
  • ...you want to understand why you make the financial decisions you make (and why they are often irrational).
  • ...you are looking for timeless principles for wealth and prosperity, instead of fleeting investment advice.
  • ...you want to learn how to think about money in a way that brings you long-term peace and security.

What will help you improve?

This book will change your perspective and help you improve:

  • Your understanding of the psychological traps and biases that influence your financial decisions.
  • Your relationship with risk, greed, and optimism.
  • Your definition of wealth, by learning the difference between being rich and staying rich.
  • Your ability to set long-term financial goals and remain committed to them, regardless of market conditions.

  • Average. I got tired of the numbers, the calculations, the references to people, how they operated. It was not what I expected.

    It is a book that opens your horizons. However, I believe that the Greek translation distorts some concepts and does not convey them meaningfully as it should.

    Nice book, it is pleasantly readable. It has many references to various personalities in the field. It has many examples on which the theories are based. It has useful advice and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to take their finances and attitude towards money a step further.

    This book is golden! Through everyday human stories of known and unknown individuals, Morgan Housel shares important lessons and advice related to money. Thus, he helps the reader gain a comprehensive understanding of things and be able to better manage their finances. I think it is a necessary book for all of us in the era we live in.
