  1. 26. Psychology Of Money by Morgan Housel

    Timeless lessons on wealth, greed, and happiness

    A collection of practical essays about how our emotions, biases, and life goals shape financial outcomes more than technical knowledge, arguing that simple habits—patience, saving, avoiding envy, planning for tail events, and embracing long time horizons—outperform clever strategies. It stresses humility about luck and risk, the power of compounding, the value of a margin of safety, and making money decisions that fit your personal definition of success rather than chasing social signals or short-term thrills. The overall message is that behavior, temperament, and perspective determine financial well-being more than formulas or forecasts.
