Summary

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

Great book, Amazing Narrator

Really enjoyed this book. Definitely glad I chose the audio version. The narrator was so easy to listen to and despite some technical points I never felt I lost focus while listening to him read. The book has so many good points and it’s definitely one to listen to again and absorb the points deeper.

Well Narrated

Great incites and well narrated. It could have been shorter. It also does not seem to be revealing anything new rather reiterating on what might seem as common knowledge to many people

ok book

The book is OK, however there's some irrelevant stories added to it, besides that most of the material is helpful and insightful.

Excellent

I listened to this book, then immediately afterwards listened to it again. The first time encouraged me to save the second time encouraged me to stop spending. The narration for me was sublimely well matched.

I loved this book. Ronald Read was a highlight.

I’ve reviewed this book on YouTube and I have to say it’s a great listen. It doesn’t get dry and has great pace for a book on money. The stories Housel includes are fascinating especially the one about Ronald Read. Great advice and not swamped with opinion on how wonderful money is

A Lovely Little Listen

This is a lovely little listen for anyone who likes to think about tomorrow. We all save for that rainy day and we all stress that we might not be making the right decisions with our savings and investments. This book helps you clear away some of the fog and come to the realization that you were right all along and keep going. Morgan Housel is excellent at distilling ideas and presenting them in easy to consume stories.

A good reminder to live within your means

Must admit, I didn't really learn anything new but it was entertaining enough to reinforce some finance fundamentals. For me it was living within your means and being frugal.
