I will update chapters to read at each event. **How to find us** I will be at 2nd floor. Take the escalator up. I will be at your right with a green sign "Cafe Finance" when you stand at the entrance. **Agenda** 5:30 \~ 6:00 pm Sharing and Networking ( You can buy or bring food to eat while we are discussing the book) 6:00 \~ 7:30 pm Book Discussion 7:30 \~ 8:00 pm Conclusion & Final thought **About the book** Doing well with money isn't necessarily about what you know. It's about how you behave. And behavior is hard to teach, even to really smart people. Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In the Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to mkae better sense of one of life's most important topics.
