The financial system, Ferguson writes, "magnifies what we human beings are like . . . our tendency to overreact" to booms and busts, enriching the "lucky and the smart, impoverishing the unlucky and not-so-smart." In this way, money is a mirror, and "it is not the fault of the mirror," he notes, "if it reflects our blemishes as clearly as our beauty." A powerful book of insights and here it is...nearly tops on our reading list. |

| Killing Sacred Cows, by Garrett B. Gunderson Overcoming the Financial Myths That Are Destroying Your Prosperity. |

| The Losing Game - No matter what you think about the numbers used in Scott's examples or his blanket indictment of everyone in the investment world, it is difficult to argue with his premise that for most, investing in the stock market is just another way to gamble. In order for us to make money from our investment, someone has to lose an equal amount. We simply bet that our timing will be better than that of our fellow Wall Street gamblers who sell their stock to us just when we want it and buy it back when we are ready to sell. We bet against them they bet against us. | |

| Go-Giver is a modern day business parable, radicalizing the idea of putting the other guy first-be it a colleague, competitor, customer, friend or family member. This book encapsulated the "Five Laws of Stratospheric Success". If you could use some of that, this is your book.
As Burg and Mann demonstrate, it's far more productive (and satisfying) when you engage the world as a Go-Giver. |
