Same as Ever

A couple of months ago, I picked up this book called ‘Same as Ever: Timeless Lessons on Risk, Opportunity, and Living a Good Life’ by Morgan Housel, author of The Psychology of Money.



‍

It’s already a New York Times bestseller, however, I don’t think it’ll really make waves in our social groups.



‍

I absolutely loved it though, Morgan sheds light on concepts, lessons and stories that have been around forever. The reason I think it’ll stay underrated, is that these lessons really aren’t anything exciting or sexy, they’re just good old fashioned truths that have stood the test of time.



‍

I can definitely recommend it though, there really was some truly insightful chapters and lessons.

It's just a game, right?

For those of you who don’t know, I LOVE video games. ‍It all started with Crash Bandicoot on the PlayStation 1 when I was around 5 or 6 years old. From that moment on, I was hooked.

Manage your money like a f*cking grownup

Written by Sam Beckbessinger, Manage your money like a f*cking grownup is arguably one of the best finance books I’ve ever read, especially for South Africans. Beckbessinger uses a comedic and relatable approach to explain vital concepts around managing your money. From tracking, to taxes, to saving, to investments and budgeting, Beckbessinger covers it all in this bestseller. There are even little illustrations throughout for those young at heart.

How to manage your money like the 1%

I stumbled upon this video a while ago, and found that it so perfectly summarises so much of what I’ve learnt about managing your finances over years into just 10minutes. If you’ve never really looked into it, this video is a great place to start. Like all online videos (and advice for that matter), avoid taking the message as law, consider the perspectives and apply those which feels right to your own situation.

The Hobbit

To balance out the very seriousness, I’ve picked up The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien (do I even need to clarify who wrote it?) A story about adventure, and a specific hobbit’s absolute reluctance to participate in it, The Hobbit follows the story of Bilbo Baggins being bombarded by a group of Dwares to go an adventure to the Misty Mountains where a great dragon (Smaug) has taken over and guards a heap of treasure. It’s such a fun read, and such a good ol’ fashioned tale. From this one book, there were four movies made (🤷🏻‍♂️), but still a very fun watch and read.

Enjoyed the reading?  I enjoy the writing.

Writing-out and assembling my reflections into story-formatted pieces to share with strangers on the internet, in the hopes that they may benefit from them, seems to bring me great joy.

If you enjoyed this piece and feel like supporting it, you can do so buying me a virtual coffee.
