About

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview: #1 Humans have a difficult time understanding economics, and this is because we are constantly concerned with the three main issues of life: love, death, and money. We are constantly studying and thinking about these matters.

#2 We are earnest scholars of amorosity and necrosis, but when it comes to economics, we become vague and fidgety. We don't seem to mind where our money comes from or where it goes. We simply wish we had more money.

#3 Our reactions to cash are crazy even when the cash belongs to strangers. We don't ridicule people for dying, but we can work ourselves into a fit of rage when a man gets rich quickly and we don't understand how he did it.

#4 The 1970s was a time of economic change and fever inflation. The most powerful nations in the world had an amazing collection of economic nincompoops at their helm.
