The Psychology of Money explains what that difference is. In this digestible book, Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories illustrating how we think about money.  He considers how past experiences can worsen our long-term financial gains. Moving the goalposts and being coldly rational can have a similar effect. Instead, set clear and sensible financial goals that don’t depend too much on how things have been in the past. The Psychology of Money covers a lot of ground in just over 200 pages. This is the book for you if you’re looking for ways to be wealthy, not rich.

He is a two-time winner of the Best in Business Award from the Society of American Business Editors and Writers. “Having a strong sense of controlling one’s life is a more dependable predictor of positive feelings of wellbeing than any of the objective conditions of life we have considered.” — Morgan Housel Click to Tweet Our current relationships with money are based on our past experiences. Housel uses the example of people who struggled during the Great Recession that started in 2007, and are now scared of reinvesting.  We shouldn’t judge others for their financial decisions. We have all simply had different experiences of investing. We must learn to make investment decisions based on our goals and investment options rather than experiences. The world is always changing. Relying on your experiences means you’re basing your decisions on knowledge of a different world.
