The Psychology of Money: Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Greed and Happiness - Paperback

The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel is a timeless guide to understanding how people think about wealth, greed, and happiness. Instead of focusing on complex financial theories, Housel uses 19 short stories to reveal the hidden ways emotions, habits, and personal experiences shape money decisions. Packed with practical wisdom and relatable insights, this book shows why financial success is less about what you know and more about how you behave. A must-read for anyone who wants to build not just wealth, but lasting financial peace of mind.

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.
