All the Presidents' Money: How the Men Who Governed America Governed Their Money - Megan Gorman

Descriere All the Presidents' Money: How the Men Who Governed America Governed Their Money - Megan Gorman

A journey through the personal money stories of the US presidents and how they built wealth--or didn't. \nWas Harry Truman really our poorest president or simply a man up at 2 a.m. struggling with financial anxiety? Did Calvin Coolidge get bad advice from his stockbroker to buy stocks in 1930 as the market continued to crash? Is it true George Washington enhanced his net worth by marrying up? \n \nWe often think of the US presidents as being above the fray. But the truth is, the presidents are just like us--worried about money, trying to keep a budget, and chasing the American financial dream. While some presidents like Herbert Hoover and Gerald Ford became wildly successful with money, others like Thomas Jefferson and Joe Biden struggled to sustain their lifestyle. The ability to win the presidency is no guarantee of financial security, although today it's a much easier path to monetize. \n \nIn All the Presidents' Money, tax attorney and wealth manager Megan Gorman takes us on a journey to understand the different personal money stories of the presidents. Grit, education, and risk are just some of the different ways that the presidents over the last 250 years have made (or lost) money. \n \nWith lively storytelling and rigorous research, All the Presidents' Money reveals how some of the greatest leaders are the worst money managers and our least favorite presidents are good at making money.\n
