读过《Same as Ever》 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
这本书长着畅销书的面相哈哈。作者很会讲故事是真的,道理没有特别特别新的,但是揉开了讲给你还是很有趣的。世间太多变化,想听听什么不变吗,且来读一读书里的故事吧。
这书里其实有我不太喜欢的点,比如有些稍显陈词,比如引用好多好多别人说的话,看出来作者本人是芒格巴菲特盖茨的信徒了,但是我居然到听完都还觉得有些意犹未尽,再次感慨说故事的能力强啊。真心想学习🥹

From Morgan Housel, bestselling author of The Psychology of Money, stories about what people have always done, and will always do
Everyone wants to see the future. Few are good at it. From business to economics, politics to social trends, we’re just not very good at predicting what happens next.
According to Morgan Housel, this is because we focus too much on what we think will change and not enough on what we know will stay the same.
If you traveled in time to 500 years ago or 500 years from now, you would be astounded at how much technology and medicine has changed. The geopolitical order would make no sense to you. The language and dialect may be completely foreign. But you’d notice people falling for greed and fear just like they do in our current world.
You’d see people persuaded by risk, jealousy, and tribal affiliations in ways that are familiar to you.
You’d see overconfidence and short-sightedness that reminds you of people's behavior today.
You’d find people seeking the secret to a happy life and trying to find certainty when none exists in ways that are so relatable.
When transported to an unfamiliar world, you’d spend a few minutes watching people behave and say, “Ah. I’ve seen this before. Same as ever.”
History is filled with surprises no one could have seen coming. But if we learn to see what doesn’t change, we can be more confident in our choices, no matter what the future brings.
