Dollars and Sense: How We Misthink Money and How to Spend Smarter
by Dan Ariely and Jeff Kreisler, 2017
I just feel like this book could have written “tongue pressed firmly in cheek” at the end of each paragraph. The tone is meant to be light and jokey, but it comes off as demeaning and annoying. The topic is how to spend and think about money more wisely. With the number of behavioral economics and personal finance books that I’ve read, I don’t think I learned anything. I listened to the book on tape, and the reader’s voice elevated the book’s annoyance.
