In 2014, Elizabeth and Nate Thames were conventional 9-5 young urban professionals. But the couple had a dream to become modern-day homesteaders in rural Vermont. Determined to retire as early as possible in order to start living each day - as opposed to wishing time away working for the weekends - they enacted a plan to save an enormous amount of money: well over 70 percent of their joint take-home pay. Dubbing themselves the Frugalwoods, Elizabeth began documenting their unconventional frugality and the resulting wholesale lifestyle transformation on their eponymous blog.

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.

realista
abordagem realista, nao existe magica. se vc quer aposentar cedo, tem q poupar bastante. o autor vai ao extremo de propor q vc economize em muita coisa, inclusive muito lazer. cabe ao leitor ver ate que ponto faz sentido deixar de aproveitar o presente em troca do futuro. penso que talvez o melhor seja o equilibrio entre poupar e viver. colocar meta de poupança, mas tambem metas de viagens, lazer em geral. Talvez o problema esteja no pressuposto: o desejo de se aposentar cedo. porque como voce precisa juntar muiti para se aposentar, de uma certa forma, esse objetivo implica naquela frase "quando eu me aposentar farei a,b e c..." o problema é q vc nao sabe se tera saúde, se seus investimentos trarao retorno suficiente. pode dar tudo certo, pode dar tudo errado tb. em alguns momentos achei q o livro era "como sobreviver se perder o emprego ou sua renda diminuir", pq ele propoe um arrocho economico de mais de uma ou 2 décadas de padrao de vida frugal.
