Description
How money and work truly affect your life – often differently than you think.
This book will open your eyes. It combines classical and behavioral economics with psychology to show you why we work, how we think about money – and why we often let ourselves be unconsciously influenced.
You will find answers to questions you may have never asked yourself, but which affect your everyday life:
Why should each of us receive a "package insert" for money?
And why does our decision-making often go awry when it comes to finances?
What does work actually mean to us today – and could we live without it?
How to value work that is not visible – such as household care?
This book is not just about theory. You will find clear explanations, real-life examples, specific calculations, and experiments that will help you better understand yourself and others. Don't expect another defense of consumer life – rather a practical guide that will help you understand your own relationship with work, money, and what truly motivates you.
