Diaundra's TL;DR - The Psychology of Money 🤑
What I learned reading 'The Psychology of Money' by Morgan Housel
Book takeaways
Define “what is enough?” If you do not, the goal post will always be moving and you will never be satisfied
“Saving money is the gap between your ego and your income.” Wealth is created by suppressing what you could buy today in order to have more OPTIONS in the future. (Being rich = owning things. Wealth = owning options)
The key to happiness is owning your time. Use $ to gain control over your life
Save for a Margin of Safety - “The most important part of every plan is to plan on the plan not going according to plan”
Define the game YOU are playing & make sure your actions are not being influenced by people playing a different game
My thoughts: QUALITY > quantity. American consumerism is flawed. Do not buy more, buy better

Nice. The book is an awesome read. I had created a visually simplified version of the book some time back and will be posting it soon. Waiting for my copy of the Housel's latest book - Same as Ever.
