What this book teaches

Morgan Housel invites you to reframe the question we often default to when planning the future. Instead of asking, “What will the economy do next year?” or “What will change ten years from now?” he suggests a simpler, more useful inquiry: what will be the same in the future as it is today? This perspective helps readers build resilience and confidence in a world of unpredictability. The book blends concise thinking with inviting storytelling, making complex ideas feel approachable and practical. It’s a thoughtful read for anyone who wants to think clearly about risk, opportunity, and living well—whether you’re refining personal finances, guiding a classroom, or shaping a long-term plan for yourself or your family.
