Is your investment in that new Internet stock a sign of stockmarket savvy or an act of peculiarly American speculative folly?How has the psychology of investing changed--and not changed--overthe last five hundred years?

You know what happened during the financial crisis … now it istime to understand why the financial system came so close tofalling over the edge of the abyss and why it could happen again.Wall Street has been saved, but it hasn’t been reformed. What isthe problem? Suzanne McGee provides a penetrating look at the forces thattransformed Wall Street from its traditional role as acapital-generating and economy-boosting engine into a behemothoperating with only its own short-term interests in mind and withreckless disregard for the broader financial system and those whorelied on that system for their well being and prosperity. Primary among these influences was “Goldman Sachs envy”: theself-delusion on the part of Richard Fuld of Lehman Brothers,Stanley O’Neil of Merrill Lynch, and other power brokers (egged onby their shareholders) that taking more risk would enable theircompanies to make even more money than Goldman Sachs. Thathubris—and that narrow-minded focus on maximizing their
FIASCO is the shocking story of one man's education in thejungles of Wall Street. As a young derivatives salesman at MorganStanley, Frank Partnoy learned to buy and sell billions of dollarsworth of securities that were so complex many traders themselvesdidn't understand them. In his behind-the-scenes look at thetrading floor and the offices of one of the world's top investmentfirms, Partnoy recounts the macho attitudes and fiercelycompetitive ploys of his office mates. And he takes us to theannual drunken skeet-shooting competition, FIASCO, where he and hiscolleagues sharpen the killer instincts they are encouraged to useagainst their competitiors, their clients, and each other. FIASCO is the first book to take on the derivatves tradingindustry--the most highly charged and risky sector of the stockmarket. More importantly, it is a blistering indictment of thelargely unregulated market in derivatives and serves as a warningto unwary investors about real fiascos, which have cost billions ofdollars.
In The Millionaire Next Door, read by Cotter Smith, Stanley (Marketing to the Affluent) and Danko (marketing, SUNY at Albany) summarize findings from their research into the key characteristics that explain how the elite club of millionaires have become "wealthy." Focusing on those with a net worth of at least $1 million, their surprising results reveal fundamental qualities of this group that are diametrically opposed to today's earn-and-consume culture, including living below their means, allocating funds efficiently in ways that build wealth, ignoring conspicuous consumption, being proficient in targeting marketing opportunities, and choosing the "right" occupation. It's evident that anyone can accumulate wealth, if they are disciplined enough, determined to persevere, and have the merest of luck. In The Millionaire Mind, an excellent follow-up to the highly successful first analysis of how ordinary folks can accumulate wealth, Stanley interviews many more participants in a much more comprehensive study of
