Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University.

Best book I’ve ever read.
Revisado: 03-27-22
I loved the vocabulary and it’s preciseness. The story is so gripping it’s hard to put it down. The details are so incredible, so outrageous, so insane. The story made my cry, laugh, and freeze in shock and disbelief.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Straight talk and uncommon sense
Revisado: 02-18-22
Hill does a fabulous job of tying together history, science, and psychology to reframe the context around money and investing. Historical examples drawing from various fields which he used to validate his principles kept me engaged throughout.

When David Mauro was in his 40s, his life hit rock bottom. With nothing to lose, he left everything he knew behind and set out on an epic international adventure. For the next seven years, Dave trudged across glaciers and frozen wastelands and through dense, dangerous forests. He communed with penguins and elephants, kept company with cannibals and gunrunners, and spoke with the dead. And though he’d never been a climber, he ended up joining history’s courageous few when he ascended into the clouds to stand at the summit of Mt. Everest.

Very entertaining and inspiring
Revisado: 08-15-18
I downloaded this book and listened to it every time I got in the car. I started making excuses to be in the car. The story is true, compelling, well told and inspirational.
The author shows true humility as he describes his experiences including his challenges, inner demons, his inner journey and impressive accomplishments.
Thank you David for sharing your amazing story!
