About this item
The Uncomfortable Truth About Money reveals the secrets seasoned investors know – and most financial books won't tell you.
We are all stuck in a money cage. Money isn't the most important thing, but it is a thing and you can't get away from it. Birth costs money and death costs money.
So even if you hate talking about money, you need to know the basics, the same way you need to know how to cook yourself a simple meal.
The problem with most money books is that they are not written by practitioners and avoid hard truths. In The Uncomfortable Truth About Money, macro-economics expert and journalist Paul Podolsky draws on his years of experience to teach you the essentials.
You'll learn:
- Why stocks are not always good in the long run
- How being stingy helps accrue wealth
- That the big thing when you buy property has nothing to do with the actual property
- What to look for if it's time to pull out of the markets
The Uncomfortable Truth About Money is a lifetime of financial learnings distilled down to an accessible, practical, short guide. It's a basic recipe we can all follow.
'A valuable compass to steer through life' – Gillian Tett, Financial Times columnist
