Morgan Housel

Morgan Housel is a partner at Collaborative Fund and author of "The Psychology of Money" (2020), which became one of the best-selling personal finance and investing books in years, selling over 4 million copies. Before Collaborative Fund, he was a columnist at The Motley Fool and The Wall Street Journal, writing about investing, economics, and history. His writing focuses on the behavioral and psychological dimensions of money — why people make irrational financial decisions, how patience and emotional control matter more than intelligence in investing, and how different people's risk tolerances and life experiences shape their financial choices. His follow-up book "Same as Ever" (2023) explored timeless human behaviors that apply across financial history. His particular strength is connecting historical financial examples to timeless psychological patterns, making abstract investing principles concrete and actionable for readers without professional finance backgrounds.
