“Be nicer and less flashy. No one is impressed with your possessions as much as you are. You might think you want a fancy car or a nice watch. But what you probably want is respect and admiration. And you’re more likely to gain those things through kindness and humility than horsepower and chrome.”
― Morgan Housel, The Psychology of Money

“A genius is the man who can do the average thing when
everyone else around him is losing his mind.”
― Morgan Housel, The Psychology of Money

“Savings can be created by spending less. You can spend less if you desire less. And you will desire less if you care less about what others think of you.”
― Morgan Housel, The Psychology of Money

“Less ego, more wealth. Saving money is the gap between your ego and your income, and wealth is what you don’t see. So wealth is created by suppressing what you could buy today in order to have more stuff or more options in the future. No matter how much you earn, you will never build wealth unless you can put a lid on how much fun you can have with your money right now, today.”
― Morgan Housel, The Psychology of Money
