A practicing neurologist, he used his self-taught investment knowledge and research to build a popular investor's website.

Why do so many otherwise smart people make foolish financial choices? Why do investors sell stocks just before they skyrocket -- and cling to others as they plummer? Why do shoppers overspend when using credit cards rather than cash? What do our habits of tipping or buying lottery tickets indicate about our relationship with money?

Most important, they focus on the decisions we make every day and, using entertaining examples, provide invaluable tips on avoiding the financial faux pas that can cost thousands of dollars each year.
An inspirational guide to getting out of the rat race
Robert Scheinfeld, author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller The 11th Element, is back with a guide to help people make money a non-issue in their lives. No matter how well people play, and no matter how much money they pile up while playing, they just can't win the Money Game. There's always a price to pay in the form of stress, anxiety, pain, loss, or disillusionment-if they play according to the rules, regulations, and structure they're taught growing up. The only way to truly win is to bust loose from the game entirely and create a new set of rules. In Busting Loose from the Money Game, Scheinfeld presents mind-blowing strategies for doing just that. It's a radical new way of thinking and living that will have millions of Americans setting their own course for a truly prosperous future.
