Small change : money mishaps and how to avoid them
Ariely, Dan2018
Books
Blending humour and behavioural economics, the author of 'Predictably Irrational' delves into the truly illogical world of personal finance to help people better understand why they make bad financial decisions, and gives knowledge they need to make better ones. Why does paying for things often feel like it causes physical pain? Why does it cost you money to act as your own real estate agent? Why are we comfortable overpaying for something now just because we've overpaid for it before? World renowned economist Dan Ariely answers these intriguing questions and many more as he explains how our irrational behaviour often interferes with our best intentions when it comes to managing our finances. Partnering with financial comedian and writer Jeff Kreisler, Ariely takes us deep inside our minds to expose hidden motivations that are secretly driving our choices about money.
