  2. The Psychology of Money

    Morgan Housel · at 11:11

    The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel is a popular personal finance book that explores how human behavior, ego, and worldview shape financial decisions far more than cold mathematical spreadsheets.

    Discussed
    “So, even somebody as well-meaning as Morgan Housel, who we talk about the psychology of money all the time, this is at its essence, he is a FI guy, but when you hear him on podcasts, he actually talks down about the FIRE movement and it's it's just out of ignorance.”
