Resumen del Editor

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A must-have guide to optimizing your life for wealth and success, from bestselling author, NYU professor, and co-host of the Pivot podcast Scott Galloway.

Today's workers have more opportunities and mobility than any generation before. They also face unprecedented challenges, including inflation, labor and housing shortages, and climate volatility. Even the notion of retirement is undergoing a profound rethink, as our life spans extend and our relationship with work evolves. In this environment, the tried-and-true financial advice our parents followed no longer applies. It's time for a new playbook.

In The Algebra of Wealth, Galloway lays bare the rules of financial success in today's economy. In his characteristic unvarnished, no-BS style, he explains what you need to know in order to better your chances for economic security no matter what. You’ll learn:

• How to find and follow your talent, not your passion, when making career decisions
• How to ride and optimize big economic waves (hard truth: market dynamics always trump individual achievement)
• What small steps you can take that pay big returns later, including diversification and tax planning
• How stoicism can help you minimize spending and develop better financial habits

Bursting with practical, game-changing advice from one of the world’s most popular business school professors, The Algebra of Wealth is the practical guidebook you need to win today’s wealth game.

“Profoundly insightful and a joy to read. Few explain complicated topics better than Scott Galloway.”—Morgan Housel, New York Times bestselling author of The Psychology of Money

“The decisions you make at the beginning of your professional life have a compounding impact on your chances of success, and this invaluable guide will steer you toward an optimal outcome.”—Annie Duke, bestselling author of Thinking in Bets

I cannot recommend it strongly enough!"—Aswath Damodaran, professor of finance, Stern School of Business, NYU

Sage Financial and Wisdom

Scott is a great story teller and this book delivers holistically the concepts of Financial security and other angles to consider.

Wish I had this wisdom at the start of my career

I am gifting this book to both my kids. Life lessons and wisdom that everyone should carry with them!!

Scott cares and so he shares

I wish I had this manual in my teens. Scott has beautifully interwoven the fabric of money-making with immediately executable itinerary on savings, investments, taxes, career choices, and relationships. His unapologetic reverence for money is not on the edifice of get-rich-quick-schemes, instead on the traditional old school hustle hard and make choices wisely.

A solid foundation in financial literacy

Excellent points mixed with personal experience. I really appreciated Scott’s take on diversification for entrepreneurs. Well worth the read.

Great money/life advice to young people

The book I wish I had read in my high school senior year. A little dense in technicalities about investing but you can skip those bits and go back to them when it’s time to make investment decisions. Great, down to earth life advice. Will be reading it again in a “book club” with my teenage sons.

Practical and wise

It’s organized well, informative and yet still entertaining. Thanks for the book and actionable steps. You’ve provided formulas that solve variables. The results will pay dividends!

Real financial advice.

Scott Galloway is a very smart man. I’ve listened to him on podcasts. I’ve read things that he’s written, and I like him more each time I hear the things he says. He knows what he’s doing, he has good advice to impart, he has real knowledge about his subject matter, and he makes it easier for the rest of us to understand it. Read this book, and follow even a fraction of the tennis in it, and you will be the better for it. Thank you for the effort you put into writing this book, and the care you show about financial matters that impact all of us.

Buy several copies!!

If you want to do something to improve the future of the country buy a few copies of this book, and give them to your kid, or any young person you want to see get ahead. Scott Galloway is knowledgeable, witty and self deprecating, but his authenticity is what screams at you. He isn’t just talking, he has done it, lived it and willing to take the time to reach back and give the next generation a hand up - grab it! He examines and redefines long held concepts, that no longer work. He exposes and lays bare the basic knowledge, that no one explains, but is vital to financial success. No get rich quick schemes here, just a tried and true formula. This is the book every sixty year old wishes someone had given them when they were 20 or 30. Can’t wait to put it in the hands of my Gen Z son.

Great listen. Recommended to my kids

Very intuitive explanation for reality of personal finance. And also a touching and motivating narrative for people to seriously consider it in their lives.

Perfect for all generation but specifically Gen-Z

The timing of this book is excellent, taking into consideration the current economic cycle. Scott takes a wholestic approach on wealth building. Living beyond the spread sheet and apply human attributes into consideration such as time management, talent career alignment, and luck .Reminds me of the psychology of money but more action-oriented and in depth. This should be a staple book for many parents, teachers, mentors, mentees, and whomever seeking financial stability.
