Can money buy happiness? Finance writer Morgan Housel made waves in 2020 with the publication of his runaway hit The Psychology of Money: Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Greed, and Happiness. Housel’s new book, Same as Ever: A Guide to What Never Changes, is an instant bestseller. Housel joins Preet to talk about the psychology of money and the motivations that can help and hurt investors – and all of us.
Plus, the problem with referring to federal judges by the presidents who appointed them and the question of damages in the Rudy Giuliani defamation trial.
