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.

Pause for thought before acting on instinct
Evolution's legacy is distorted 'rationality'.
Herd behaviour, and multiple biases do not equip us well for rational investment and disinvestment decisions.
This book is easy reading but it's messages are hard to learn. it's a useful primer in humility.

Good guide to psychological fallacies.
Good read. There's a ton of fascinating information in here on the numerous psychological quirks and fallacies that humans fall pray to, with an emphasis on those relevant to traders. The main actionable point being that we need to have consistent rules and procedures in place to counter our own psychological frailties.
My main criticism of the book was although there is a great deal of good information here, it's not organized in a way that aids memory or allows you to process it very clearly.
Pratt is his usual competent self as the narrator.

A useful summary/reminder, by not much new
This book provides a useful summary and reminder of common decision making pitfalls, but these are the same as are commonly mentioned in many other books, so there isn't much new here.
Main takeaway is to follow process, as this gives much better results than our default decision making tendencies outside of process.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting anything much from the book. Was I positevly suprised once listened to it for the first time.
Although it is just 5 hours read, I enjoyed it really a lot. There are several quizes along the way which made me laugh.

NEGATIVE BOOK
The author says he's fat in the last chapter. Anyone should know that's a clear indicator of a bad book, to begin with.
The book is all about why most people can't succeed investing in the stock market, or any businesses for that matter.
I don't know about you, but I don't care about knowing how not to fail, I care only about knowing how to succeed.
If you are the same, don't read this book.
