The Money Game

Product Information

Any sense of attachment or emotion to an investment can lead to a humbling experience for the most brilliant investors. Identities are supposed to come from occupations. If the occupation is money-making then anxiety must always be present, because there is always a threat the money which represents the achievement can be taken away. Towards the middle of the book, the author-narrator grows a bit more restless and perhaps a bit bored with the trade. Call it a midlife crisis, but instead of buying a motorcycle or a Porche, he makes an attempt to first seek a more lively thrill of trading cocoa futures and then tries to seek the truth, first through a conversation with a semi-mythological entity, called the Gnome of Zurich, and later through pursuit of redeeming the pure silver out of the national treasury of the United States of America, and then starts to muse only halfway lightheartedly about what is wealth all for and how base it all really is. Yet, I am sure, this musing does not prevent him from enjoying a fine dinner and a home in the Hamptons. Chapter 19: Sooner or later you have to come to reality, and stop being a father to the world. Lead it, yes. Buy it. No. It has taken me years to unlearn everything I was taught, and I probably haven’t succeeded yet. I cite this only because most of what has been written about the market tells you the way it ought to be, and the successful investors I know do not hold to the way it ought to be, they simply go with what is.”

Long before the witty Buffett-isms, someone wrote those same words as part of his Irregular Rules. And long before Michael Lewis carved out his own position as the Wall Street storyteller du jour, someone else did so with similar eloquent finesse. Today, nearly three months have passed since George J.W. Goodman died on January 3, 2014 - or, as the financial after world knew him by, Adam Smith. A name created for him by the publisher of New York Magazine so as to keep his weekly Wall Street columns anonymous.

When George J. W. Goodman puts forth his Irregular Rule , what he is ultimately asking you the reader is to know yourself before you show up to the Game. Know the type of investing strategy that works for you and your level of anxiety. Know your reasons, your whys, and your how’s. Because if you do not, you will be swept up one way or another by the Game. The mood is what makes a system, a theory, a strategy, or a rational view on markets imperfect, imprecise, sometimes wrong, and irrational. Mood makes markets biological, complex, and in a constant state of change. Last half of the book wanders across the investment landscape with varying types of investors are explored. The Money Game is a satirical look at Wall Street. It brings to light in a humorous manner the psychological aspect of Wall Street.Smith’s’ observations can be funny, and his curmudgeonliness is fun to read. And for a book written as long ago as this one was, it’s surprisingly relevant – aside from an amusingly archaic diatribe about computers, the same arguments then are the ones we’re having today.
