The Psychology of Money
💰 Quick Summary: The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel
Money success is about behavior, not intelligence.
Wealth is what you don’t see — it’s hidden in savings, not luxury.
Luck & risk shape outcomes — don't judge success too narrowly.
Compound interest is a superpower — patience beats perfection.
A few big wins drive most financial success — not constant wins.
Save even when you don’t have a goal — it buys freedom later.
The ultimate wealth = freedom over your time.
Comparing yourself to others is a fast way to lose.
Getting rich takes risk — staying rich takes humility.
Your money mindset is shaped by your unique life story.
Knowing when to stop is key — "enough" protects you.
Emotionally reasonable > mathematically perfect — stick to what works for you.
