“Dollars and Sense” explores the hidden psychology behind how people think about money and make financial decisions. The book reveals that humans are not as rational as they believe when it comes to spending, saving, or investing. Through engaging stories and behavioral research, Ariely and Kreisler explain why we often overspend, undervalue savings, fall for pricing tricks, and make emotional rather than logical choices with money. The authors highlight common mental traps—like anchoring and loss aversion—and provide insights on how to recognize and overcome them. Ultimately, the book helps readers make smarter, more intentional financial decisions.
