The Algebra of Wealth: A Simple Formula for Financial Security
BONUS BOOK GIVEAWAY! We are giving away copies of The Algebra of Wealth to randomly selected Zoom attendees. Details on the webinar registration page.
Today’s workers have more opportunities and mobility than any generation before. They also face unprecedented challenges, including inflation, labor and housing shortages, and climate volatility. Even the notion of retirement is undergoing a profound rethink, as our life spans extend and our relationship with work evolves. In this environment, the tried-and-true financial advice our parents followed no longer applies. It’s time for a new playbook.
In The Algebra of Wealth: A Simple Formula for Financial Security, Scott Galloway, professor of marketing at New York University’s Stern School of Business and a serial entrepreneur, lays bare the rules of financial success in today’s economy. In his characteristic unvarnished, no-BS style, he explains what you need to know to better your chances for economic security no matter what.

He has won multiple Webby and Best Podcast awards, and his books have been translated into 28 languages. Across his Prof G and Pivot podcasts, No Mercy/No Malice newsletter, and his YouTube channel, Galloway reaches millions.
