Money for Beginners cover

Money is mysterious. We love it, we hate it, but few people can tell you what the heck it really is. Wouldn't it be good to get out of the fog?

This book will help you understand both the way money works and how to leverage its power. The authors take you on an illuminating journey from your piggy bank to the Federal Reserve with no pesky jargon or complex math.

Once you see money clearly, life will never be the same. You'll know what really goes on in banks and what the cash in your wallet represents. You'll know how government really spends and why it can’t run out of money.

You'll know what money can actually do — and how we can make it work for us.

“BRILLIANT!! Tally-ho!”
James K. Galbraith, The University of Texas at Austin
