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.

In The Geometry of Wealth, behavioral finance expert Brian Portnoy delivers an inspired answer based on the idea that wealth, truly defined, is funded contentment. It is the ability to underwrite a meaningful life. This stands in stark contrast to angling to become rich, which is usually an unsatisfying treadmill.

What exactly is a Money Mind? At one level, it's a way of thinking about major financial issues such as capital allocation. At another level, it summarizes an overall mindset for successfully investing in today's fast-paced stock market, a mindset that depends on a commitment to learning, adapting, and facing down irrelevant noise. This is not a method book. It is a thinking book. Warren Buffett: Inside the Ultimate Money Mind explains the philosophies of self-reliance, stoicism, rationalism, and pragmatism and their contributions to making intelligent investment decisions.

The legendary investor shows how to identify and master the cycles that govern the markets. We all know markets rise and fall, but when should you pull out, and when should you stay in? The answer is never black or white, but is best reached through a keen understanding of the reasons behind the rhythm of cycles. Confidence about where we are in a cycle comes when you learn the patterns of ups and downs that influence not just economics, markets and companies, but also human psychology and the investing behaviors that result.

Investing can be a roller-coaster of highs and lows, and the investors detailed here reveal just how low it can go; stories from Warren Buffet, Bill Ackman, Chris Sacca, Jack Bogle, Mark Twain, John Maynard Keynes, and many more illustrate the simple but overlooked concept that investing is really hard, whether you're managing a few thousand dollars or a few billion. Failures and losses are part of the game. Much more than just anecdotal diversion, these stories set the basis for the book's critical focus: learning from mistakes.

Charlie Munger, Berkshire Hathaway's visionary vice chairman and Warren Buffett's indispensable financial partner, has outperformed market indexes again and again, and he believes any investor can do the same. His notion of "elementary, worldly wisdom" - a set of interdisciplinary mental models involving economics, business, psychology, ethics, and management - allows him to keep his emotions out of his investments and avoid the common pitfalls of bad judgment.

Publisher's Summary
From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Dr. Daniel Crosby comes the behavioral finance book all investors have been waiting for.
In The Laws of Wealth, psychologist and behavioral finance expert Daniel Crosby offers an accessible and applied take on a discipline that has long tended toward theory at the expense of the practical. Listeners are treated to real, actionable guidance as the promise of behavioral finance is realized and practical applications for everyday investors are delivered.
Crosby presents a framework of timeless principles for managing your behavior and your investing process. He begins by outlining 10 rules that are the hallmarks of good investor behavior, including "Forecasting is for Weathermen" and "If you're excited, it's probably a bad idea". He then goes on to introduce a unique new taxonomy of behavioral investment risk that will enable investors and academics alike to understand behavioral risk in a newly coherent and complete way.
From here, attention turns to the four ways in which behavioral risk can be combated and the five equity selection methods investors should harness to take advantage of behaviorally-induced opportunities in the stock market. Throughout, listeners are treated to anecdotes and research that explain the lessons in memorable ways. And in highly valuable "What now?" summaries at the end of each chapter, Crosby provides clear, concise direction on what investors should think, ask, and do to benefit from the behavioral research.
Dr. Crosby's training as a clinical psychologist and work as an asset manager provide a unique vantage and result in a book that breaks new ground in behavioral finance. You need to follow the laws of wealth to manage your behavior and improve your investing process!

Good Overall
Like most of these type of books there's a lot of fluff and a lot of things you probably already know. I appreciated the overall balanced view of different investing strategies instead of just advocating one style of investing as the only strategy worthwhile as many do. I would recommend it as a good read, especially for newer investors

Interesting, but with only a few new ideas
Interesting book, full of quotes and anecdotes from other authors, but without many new ideas. While the first part of the book promotes good investment behavior, the second part is just a rather vague active investment strategy based on value and momentum.

A heading is required
A good book to read and own, if you're planning on starting to invest, or are otherwise interested in the behaviour of people when it comes to investing. The information in this book is on par with other famous investing manuals, with the added bonus of having an expert explain the psychological aspects thoroughly. Some minus for the reader's pacing, which sometimes makes it difficult to discern what's a title and what's main text.

Not a massive amount of content but quite a few nuggets of wisdom. Could use either some more advice or some more breakdowns of papers, or ideally both. Overall just a little bit light.
