boring book

Revisado: 04-08-24

i've read a lot of economic books from audible. this was among the most boring i've ever listened to. skip over this selection. anything by great courses or thomas sowell or a host of other authors is a lot more engaging and illuminating.

Excellent Summary Of Dalio’s Core Beliefs

Revisado: 11-23-23

Ray Dalio is a legend, and this book nicely encapsulates so many of his core business & life principles. What a great achievement! If you want to understand what makes someone of his level thrive, this is a good primer to start with.

Pretty good book

Revisado: 06-28-23

I think this is a good read. Toward the end the chapters felt a little monotonous- but overall it was still good and informative.

Largely Lives Up to the Hype

Revisado: 05-18-22

This book has received a lot of adulation. I wasn't that into the narratives of the Necrons, but I thought I'd read this based on the buzz I was hearing about this book. Honestly- it was legitimately good.

I first need to mention the first half of the book was actually somewhat underwhelming. The fight scenes are written in a somewhat circumstantial manner that does not port that well to the spoken word of audible. I honestly thought about not finishing the book. However I soldiered on, and changed my opinion of the book very quickly.

At around the mid point of the book, (minor spoiler) Trazyn and Orikan need to join forces. At this point, the book started holding my attention much more easily. The plot points and characterization from here on out were written so well that the book became a true pleasure to read. The epilogue was a little awkward, but overall, this book was an impressive achievement. I'll also mention Richard Reed's narration and ability to master the voices of so many different characters (male and female) was quite impressive.

I'm into Trazyn and Orikan- even if I'm still not that into the rest of the Necron civilization!

Well researched but...

Revisado: 05-01-22

... The philosophical underpinnings of Marxism was admittedly not of great subject interest for me. I realized that shortly after starting the book and had originally gotten it largely since Thomas Sowell wrote it. I elected to finish it largely for the latter reason as well. It's well researched (as one would expect from Thomas Sowell), but I'm just not that interested in it.

Good book on basics of finance and economics

Revisado: 04-19-22

Dr. Fullenkamp does an excellent job conveying the basics of finance and economics regarding 'how the financial system works.' This is a very good book and is worth one's while if you want to understand such issues from an expert who can explain such concepts to the lay person.

Very well researched book

Revisado: 03-30-22

One of Peter Zeihan's core theses is that America will further isolate itself from the rest of the world if it so chooses and that America (largely aided by incredible geography and shale abundance) will further become an economic superpower while the rest of world largely languishes. I don't know if I completely agree with the idea that America will be so inclined to isolate itself in that scenario, but I am really impressed with how well researched and how well articulated Mr. Zeihan's points are.

This book is an excellent primer for his overall world philosophy and is a must read for anyone with any interest in geopolicits and world economics.
