Going Broke

Psychologist Stuart Vyse explores the reasons behind America's widespread financial struggles and self-destructive spending. He argues that mounting debt isn't just a personal failing but a consequence of a fast-paced economy and societal shifts that erode self-control. Vyse examines how developments like credit cards, gambling, and new shopping avenues have reshaped our relationship with money over the past three decades. The book offers practical advice for individuals seeking financial stability, alongside recommendations for broader economic and social reforms.
