Money & the Human Condition - Douglas Obey - Bog

Make your money work for you... With so much at stake-family security, financial growth and retirement-it is concerning that most people have little to no understanding of financial matters, investments or how the economy works. Nor do they believe the basic concepts behind financial growth are anything they need to know. They simply look at their 401K report quarter after quarter, note the changes and wonder, "How did this happen?" Why in the most capitalistic society on earth, do we Americans understand so little about how money works? A fascinating dichotomy, really, and one rooted in both western culture and human nature. Understanding this will help you master the art of making money work for you instead of continuing to work so hard for it. What's so fascinating is that it is more about the study of human behavior than finance and money, hence the title of the book, Money and the Human Condition.
