Money is not just a financial tool.It is a psychological force. Why do people who understand money still make poor financial decisions?Why does earning more often fail to bring peace?Why do fear, ego, comparison, and overconfidence repeatedly derail even the smartest plans? The Psychology of Money: Understanding How We Think, Feel, and Act About Money explores the hidden emotional and behavioral forces that shape every financial decision we make. Rather than focusing on formulas, market predictions, or quick wins, this book reveals a deeper truth: financial success depends far more on behavior than intelligence. Instead of technical strategies, this book dives into the psychological side of money-mindset, identity, emotion, risk, luck, patience, and the stories we tell ourselves about wealth and success. It reveals why behavior consistently beats intelligence, why survival matters more than returns, and why true wealth is often invisible. Through clear insights and timeless principles, Lyle Everson shows that financial success is not about predicting the future-but preparing for it. Readers will learn how to avoid catastrophic mistakes, build personal money rules that actually work, and design a financial life that supports freedom, contentment, and peace. This book challenges traditional ideas of success and offers a quieter, more durable definition of wealth-one built on flexibility, resilience, and control over your time rather than constant consumption or comparison.
