Why Money Feels So Hard

The feeling

The heaviest object in modern life.

People work jobs that make them miserable to buy things they don't need to impress people they don't like. They feel poor in houses their grandparents would have called palaces. They lie awake at 2 a.m. doing mental math about a future that hasn't happened.

This book walks through each projection we load onto money — enough, audience, anxiety, identity, illusion, security, inheritance — through psychology, behavioral economics, philosophy, and history, until the number gets lighter.

Understand the game. Stop being played by it.

Psychology, behavioral economics, philosophy, history — free, because clarity about money shouldn't cost money.
