Ellis J: The Austerity Instinct

The Austerity Instinct

Why You Still Live Like You're Broke, Even Though You're Not

We’ve been on a raucous, century-long merry-go-round of dueling ideas and personalities: efficient versus inefficient markets; rational versus irrational investors; concepts of risk so profoundly different they don’t seem to reside on the same planet; rich families for whom money is among their least important characteristics; bitter, lifelong feuds. Along the way we’ve met some odd characters and had some amusing experiences.This book brings together the foundational ideas that have shaped investment and wealth management over the past hundred years. Curating thirty landmark works—from Benjamin Graham’s The Intelligent Investor to contemporary classics on behavioral finance and family governance—the book offers a structured guide to the principles, strategies, and philosophies that underpin successful wealth stewardship.Organized in three parts, the book surveys twentieth-century investment breakthroughs, twenty-first-century innovations, and the emerging canon of private wealth management. Each chapter distills the essence of a classic text, explains its historical significance, and demonstrates its relevance for today’s advisors and families. Topics include modern portfolio theory, risk management, behavioral economics, family enterprise governance, and intergenerational planning.Designed as an accessible reference for practitioners and informed readers, this book addresses the complexity of managing family capital—taxes, trusts, governance, and human dynamics—while grounding practice in enduring ideas. By synthesizing a century of scholarship and experience, A Century of Wealth Management Wisdom provides wealth advisors, estate planners, and family office professionals with a definitive resource for navigating the challenges of preserving and growing capital across generations.Gregory Curtis&nbsp;
 is the author of eight books, including three investment books: 
 Family Capital, The Stewardship of Wealth, and Creative Capital
 . He is the author of nearly 50 white papers and journal articles on a variety of investment topics. He has lectured at Harvard Law School, the Tepper School at Carnegie Mellon University, and the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, all in the USA. He has also lectured at the University of Zurich in Switzerland, the University of Vienna in Austria, and Corvinus University in Hungary.

Where to Retire

In a novel application of the work of neo-Aristotelian virtue ethics to the philosophy of business, Robert CB Miller argues that free-market capitalism requires virtues to mitigate its flaws and to enhance its strengths. Ethics in a Capitalist Economy begins with an outline of modern virtue ethics, deriving from Aristotle and Aquinas and reinvigorated in the 20th century by writers including Elizabeth Anscombe and Philippa Foot. Taking up the idea that human nature determines the virtues, Miller sets out three types of virtue specific to economic activity: contractual, behavioural and entrepreneurial. With reference to major historical and contemporary thinkers including Adam Smith, John Locke, David Hume, Alasdair MacIntyre, Mary Midgeley and Steven Pinker, the book shows the flaws in the market economy and the ways in which these flaws can be mitigated by the application of particular virtues in order to encourage human flourishing. The book includes three case studies investigating the practice (or absence) of virtues in real world situations: on the career of Warren Buffett, on insights from behavioural economics and on the philanthropic efforts of business leaders. This book combines practical considerations with a detailed and accessible reading of the theory of virtue ethics and its relation to human nature in political economy.

Hello Seven

This Palgrave Pivot develops an interdisciplinary approach to household financial decision-making by integrating behavioral finance, consumer finance, financial planning, and human-centered artificial intelligence. Moving beyond investor- and market-focused traditions, it situates financial risk tolerance, financial stress, and dynamic behavioral signals within the lived contexts of households, advisors, and institutions. The book reconceptualizes risk tolerance as a time-varying behavioral construct, positions financial stress as a core mechanism shaping decision-making and well-being, and introduces a framework of behavioral signals, including consumer complaints, sentiment, and market mood, that may precede price movements.It further examines how machine learning and AI can interpret these signals while reshaping financial advice, alongside their methodological limits and ethical implications for accountability and client autonomy. By linking psychological states, behavioral data, and advisory practice, the book offers a structured research agenda for behavioral personal finance and contributes to debates on financial well-being, vulnerability, and technology-mediated decision-making. It will be of interest to scholars and advanced students in behavioral finance, financial planning, consumer science, and decision psychology, as well as practitioners and policymakers concerned with AI and household financial behavior.Wookjae Heo
 is Associate Professor of Consumer Science at Purdue University. His research focuses on financial risk tolerance, financial stress, consumer financial behavior, and the application of machine learning and natural language processing in personal finance. He has published widely in leading journals in consumer finance and financial planning and is known for advancing behavioral personal finance as an interdisciplinary field linking household decision-making, well-being, and human-centered AI.
