The Psychology of Money

I couldn't put this book down. I have read countless books on money in my life (it was necessary to learn how I could retire at 30) and at this point most money books bore me, but this is not one of those books.

Housel explains monetary concepts in a fascinatingly concise and simple way - some with examples that I've never heard before, such as explaining compound interest with an analogy of how ice ages come to be.

If you're looking for a quick, interesting and fresh take on money I can't recommend this book enough.
