Finance books I read in 2021
Here I summarized the finance books that I read in 2021. It’s in no particular order. You can refer to this blog for list of books I read in 2020 and this Excel sheet where I consolidate all the books that I read so far.
Note: For most of the books, I have a detailed notes and I strongly recommend to read the book instead of checking the detailed notes. You can use the notes as a guide at a later point of time.
I am happy to discuss more on books and you can connect in LinkedIn or check my website.

Title: Nudge: Improving Decisions about Health, Wealth, and Happiness
Author: Richard H. Thaler, Cass R. Sunstein
What’s the book about:
1. Libertarian Paternalism: The policy and intervention should be minimal (thus providing freedom of choice to individuals i.e Libertarian) but should provide an intrinsic nudge towards general good (give a gentle push towards a choice if the individual is confused, thus paternalism)
2. Default choice: Most of the time, we just stick with the default (the wallpaper, ringtone etc;) So, policymakers need to make sure that the default is a good one (for public)
