Publisher's summary

When planning for the future we often ask, “What will the economy be doing this time next year?” Or, “What will be different ten years from now?”

But forecasting is hard. The important events that will shape the future are inherently unpredictable.

Instead, we should be asking a different question:

What will be the same ten years from now?

What will be the same one hundred years from now?

Knowledge of the things that never change is more useful, and more important, than an uncertain prediction of an unknowable future.

In Same As Ever, bestselling author Morgan Housel shares 24 short stories about the ways that life, behaviour, and business will always be the same.

Armed with this knowledge of the unchanging, you will have a powerful new ability to think about risk, opportunity, and how to navigate the uncertainty of the future.

As you see familiar themes repeat again and again in the years ahead, you’ll find yourself nodding and saying, “Yep, same as ever.”

I thought it was insightful for the most part and entertaining in its writing:)

This author was amazing and I am glad I listened to this book, perfect length in total and the chapters! Very insightful and I am confident that the person knows what he is talking about, he comes across as intelligent without being arrogant.

unfortunately didn't met my expectations

I hate to say this, but unlike the other book by the author (The Psychology of Money), which was one of the best books on money I've ever read, this one is mediocre at best. The book is all over the place with no clear direction and leaves the reader wondering what the author's message truly is. I really hope that the next book will be better, because the first one was great!
