Inhaltsangabe

Quick quiz: What's the difference between fiscal and monetary policy?

If that sounds like a trick question, this book is for you.

Economics affects everything from your grocery bill to your job prospects, and most of us couldn't explain inflation if our lives depended on it. We hear terms like "GDP" and "recession" and nod along like we get it.

This book covers supply and demand, how markets actually work, what the Federal Reserve does, why prices go up, what happens when they print more money, and why economists keep disagreeing with each other about basically everything.

You'll finally understand why gas prices swing, what a trade deficit means, and how interest rates affect your mortgage, your savings, and the entire economy.

No equations. No theory for theory's sake. Just the stuff that matters, explained so it sticks.

ECONOMICS: Money, Markets, and Why Everything Costs Too Much covers:

• Supply, Demand, GDP, and Inflation
• Interest Rates, the Fed, and Banking
• The Stock Market, Trade, and Globalization
• Recessions, Unemployment, and Business Cycles
• Taxes, Debt, and Government Spending
• Housing, Healthcare, and the Gig Economy
• Crypto, Behavioral Economics, and Reading the News

Part of The Stuff You Forgot You Learned series — 20 quick, smart refreshers for adults who want to sound like they paid attention in school.
