#53 Morgan Housel - The Psychology of Money

'The Psychology of Money' is a new book written by former Motley Fool and Wall Street Journal finance columnist Morgan Housel. The book has been called "one of the best and most original finance books in years." by the Wall Street Journal.You can tell the quality of a book by the people who have reviewed it. When you have an investing legend like Howard Marks comment on the book, you know it is going be worth investing your time to read it. This is what Marks had to say about the book. ‘Housel's observations often hit the daily double: they say things that haven't been said before, and they make sense.’The Psychology of Money is one of those books that I feel people will talk about for years. We were delighted to have a chance to read the Psychology of Money pre-publication and were fortunate to have the opportunity to interview Morgan and ask him about some of themes which ran thought his book. In this interview Morgan tells us about the book and what inspired him to write it. We also discussed some of the great anecdotes in the book and some of the stories behind them. We hope you enjoy this episode and will feel inspired to go and read, and quite possibly re-read, 'The Psychology of Money'.AlphaMind: Powering Performance in Global Markets AlphaMind brings powerful change, growth and development to people and businesses within global markets.
