Resumen del Editor

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A must-have guide to optimizing your life for wealth and success, from bestselling author, NYU professor, and cohost of the Pivot podcast Scott Galloway

Today’s workers have more opportunities and mobility than any generation before. They also face unprecedented challenges, including inflation, labor and housing shortages, and climate volatility. Even the notion of retirement is undergoing a profound rethink, as our lifespans extend and our relationship with work evolves. In this environment, the tried-and-true financial advice our parents followed is no longer enough. It’s time for a new playbook.

In The Algebra of Wealth, Scott Galloway lays bare the rules of financial success in today’s economy. In his characteristic unvarnished, no-BS style, he explains what you need to know in order to better your chances for economic security no matter what. You’ll learn:

• How to find and follow your talent, not your passion, when making career decisions
• How to ride and optimize big economic waves (hard truth: market dynamics always trump individual achievement)
• What small steps you can take that pay big returns later, including diversification and tax planning
• How stoicism can help you minimize spending and develop better financial habits

Brimming with wise, game-changing advice from one of the world’s most popular business school professors, The Algebra of Wealth offers a powerful framework for making the most of what opportunities come your way.

“Profoundly insightful and a joy to read. Few explain complicated topics better than Scott Galloway.”—Morgan Housel, New York Times bestselling author of The Psychology of Money

“The decisions you make at the beginning of your professional life have a compounding impact on your chances of success, and this invaluable guide will steer you toward an optimal outcome.”—Annie Duke, bestselling author of Thinking in Bets

Buy several copies!!

If you want to do something to improve the future of the country buy a few copies of this book, and give them to your kid, or any young person you want to see get ahead. Scott Galloway is knowledgeable, witty and self deprecating, but his authenticity is what screams at you. He isn’t just talking, he has done it, lived it and willing to take the time to reach back and give the next generation a hand up - grab it! He examines and redefines long held concepts, that no longer work. He exposes and lays bare the basic knowledge, that no one explains, but is vital to financial success. No get rich quick schemes here, just a tried and true formula. This is the book every sixty year old wishes someone had given them when they were 20 or 30. Can’t wait to put it in the hands of my Gen Z son.

Great listen. Recommended to my kids

Very intuitive explanation for reality of personal finance. And also a touching and motivating narrative for people to seriously consider it in their lives.

Common sense!

A great book on the basics that are so easily bastardized by the financial system and capitalism.

Good info, don’t like the format

Good info, good narration. Found the chapters, especially the last one, too long. Makes referencing and replaying specific parts cumbersome.

Ideas were made relevant to a young person’s stage in life

Affirmed many of my successes but mostly the failures that made success harder during my many careers And now, at 75 I can’t bring myself to retire. What to do! What to do! lol

Sage Financial and Wisdom

Scott is a great story teller and this book delivers holistically the concepts of Financial security and other angles to consider.

Great, no BS advice and overview of wealth generation

I appreciated the practical advice, the 'big picture' overview of how our capitalist society works, how you can ethically prosper, and how you can avoid the common pitfalls on your path toward financial security.

Outstanding

Enjoyed the read. Have a better financial blueprint as a young person in 2024. Thank you.

Incredible read

This book was a great read! It has been added to my must-reads list for folks. I will revisit this book again. I’ve already purchased extra copies for friends.

Just good advice

He knows what he is talking about. I wish I’d done what I was supposed to when I was young but I’m catching up now. Get rich slow!
