Details Condition: New Format: Paperback ISBN: 9780857197689 Publisher: Harriman House Age Range: Adult (16+) Overview The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel is a Sunday Times bestseller that has sold over 8 million copies worldwide. Rather than focusing on formulas or spreadsheets, this brand-new paperback explores how emotion, ego, and behaviour shape our financial decisions. Through 19 short, memorable stories, Housel reveals why doing well with money has little to do with intelligence and everything to do with how we think and act. It's an essential, accessible read for anyone wanting a calmer, wiser relationship with wealth. About the Book Money touches nearly every part of our lives, yet few of us stop to examine why we make the financial choices we do. In this acclaimed paperback, Morgan Housel argues that success with money is less about what you know and more about how you behave — and that behaviour is hard to teach, even to smart people. Across 19 concise, story-driven chapters, he examines topics such as the role of luck versus skill, the quiet power of compounding, the psychological cost of greed, and why saving matters more than earning. Each chapter can be read independently, making the book easy to dip into or read cover to cover. Housel draws on decades of financial history, behavioural research, and personal anecdote to show that the same financial outcome can be reached by wildly different paths, and that humility, patience, and long-term thinking usually beat cleverness. Featured on the Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett and Dr Chatterjee's Feel Better, Live More, this book has resonated with readers far beyond the finance world because its lessons apply as much to happiness and contentment as to investing. Whether you're a student just starting to think about money, a parent wanting to teach better habits to your children, or an experienced investor looking for a fresh perspective, this book offers timeless, practical wisdom that rewards re-reading. 19 short, story-based chapters that are quick and easy to digest Explains the psychological side of money that spreadsheets can't capture Sunday Times Number One Bestseller with over 8 million copies sold Practical takeaways on saving, investing, and building lasting wealth Perfect gift for graduates, new investors, or anyone starting their financial journey Brand-new paperback, ideal for a personal library or thoughtful present About the Author Morgan Housel is a partner at The Collaborative Fund and a former columnist at The Motley Fool and The Wall Street Journal.
