Coincidentally I bought this on Audible yesterday, it's in the 2 for 1 sale in the UK (not sure about elsewhere) so this was a good visual introduction.
I like the "look at that car" image best, I often think "nice car, shame about the driver" as some idiot speeds past me at 120mph, only in not quite so polite terms!
My kindle and Audible accounts are still based in the UK (although I do all my other shopping in Poland) as I started buying books there and [you can't?/I don't know how] to migrate to another country. When I got the paperbook, you can download the ebook for free too. I loved that arrangement.
I like the "Shame about the driver" thought, I didn't put that together but it's so true! It reminds me of how Top Gear always used to complain about BMWs as they attracted a certain type of terrible driver so then their reputation went down and that type of driver went to another car. There are a lot of lessons there; you can change your exterior but it won't change your personality.

I find water such a challenge to draw. I've tried it in a few different ways copying other people's styles. One thing I've done a bit is use overlay layers instead of a normal layer. actually had another one with water that I made during the thought process but rejected.
These are great. Firm believer that The Psychology of Money should be in every high school or college course. We make all new hires at our firm read the book. Visuals just take it up a level
We are a small family office/wealth mgmt. Coming from a 15 yr career in a large institution I saw a lot of these educational opportunities missed. Being somewhat of a startup ourselves, we have the ability teach and express what truly matters. Serve, not sell.
Thank you Rachel. I always think that the best compliment is when someone shares your work with someone else as it shows they really do like it. Hearing you shared it is a real compliment.
Sent this on to several people. Also, just saw “Five Types” at my local library. Time, health, social, ____ , financial; oops forgot #4. It was important, believe me!! I passed on borrowing because I need fiction right now, but maybe next time.
There was something that resonated in each of these. I came to investing late and research in the U.K. shows 60% of men invest compared to 40% of women. So in addition to the above typologies there is a gender element that needs to be overcome. Understanding personal finance is freedom.
Depending on the individual it seems to be a mixture of less risk appetite coupled with lesser understanding of the investment choices and markets so they save more, lower earning potential in some cases, breaks for maternity leave and focus on the home. Personally I feel this could be remediated by making financial literacy mandatory at school.

Unfortunately there's no PDF for me, I just had a look.
I love the fact that you pulled that lesson from the thought about the drivers. I can think of a few ways of saying it but none are very nice 🤣

Thanks for the summary! My favorite drawing would be the pool, a very memorable metaphor and I always love to see how different people draw water 🙂

It looks good! I like that the floor is darker, that really help it look more "real"
I tried it just to have a go so I'm glad it comes across well!

Thanks for the compliment Brad! What does your firm do? The last startup I was at had a great list of required readings.

This summary is really good. Just shared it with my husband for the reminder.

I think it’s physical (instead of health) and mental. Sounds like a great concept, right? Just need to get through a few more on my Tsundoku!

I can't remember if I've heard that before but did you hear any theories why? And does that mean women are more likely to save than men?
