There’s no denying the importance of knowledge in today’s information age. There’s no denying the importance of money in today’s consumption age. The days of limited and assured-return investment options are history. The future belongs to the multitude but market-linked investment opportunities. You are very well aware that you need three things to grow a plant. Consumption too has seen a phenomenal explosion. Not only do we see many new models or varieties within the existing product range, but also innovative products coming into the markets quite regularly. Availability of finance also has not lagged behind. Getting loans at your door-step may appear normal to the today’s younger generation. However, their parents only know how impossible it was to get credit from banks to finance their need and desires. In fact, debt was not only unheard of but also a sacrilege. Today the attitudes have changed so much that borrowing money is considered quite normal. This whole host of investment, borrowing and spending avenues have turned the world of personal finance into a virtual mine-field. One right move and you could multiply your money. But one wrong move and you could end-up in a deep financial mess. Therefore, knowledge has become critical to both successful wealth creation and its management.In addition to IQ (Intelligence Quotient) and EQ (Emotional Quotient), you need to work upon your FQ (Financial Quotient) too. In this book I have covered many areas of your personal finance and endeavoured to present them in a unique and interesting manner. The essays have been divided into five categories viz. * Emotions – acquire mastery over emotional aspects * Elementary – it’s all about getting the basics right * Entertainment – learn with a bit of fun element * Education – discern new insights/insights into new products * Enquiry – get answers to some of your everyday queries I am quite hopeful that each of the articles would add value and improve your Financial Quotient, thereby making you more adept and financially savvy.

How to assess critical aspects of cognitive functioning that are not measured by IQ tests: rational thinking skills. Why are we surprised when smart people act foolishly? Smart people do foolish things all the time. Misjudgments and bad decisions by highly educated bankers and money managers, for example, brought us the financial crisis of 2008. Smart people do foolish things because intelligence is not the same as the capacity for rational thinking. The Rationality Quotient explains that these two traits, often (and incorrectly) thought of as one, refer to different cognitive functions. The standard IQ test, the authors argue, doesn't measure any of the broad components of rationality—adaptive responding, good judgment, and good decision making. The authors show that rational thinking, like intelligence, is a measurable cognitive competence. Drawing on theoretical work and empirical research from the last two decades, they present the first prototype for an assessment of rational thinking analogous to the IQ test: the CART (Comprehensive Assessment of Rational Thinking). The authors describe the theoretical underpinnings of the CART, distinguishing the algorithmic mind from the reflective mind. They discuss the logic of the tasks used to measure cognitive biases, and they develop a unique typology of thinking errors. The Rationality Quotient explains the components of rational thought assessed by the CART, including probabilistic and scientific reasoning; the avoidance of “miserly” information processing; and the knowledge structures needed for rational thinking. Finally, the authors discuss studies of the CART and the social and practical implications of such a test. An appendix offers sample items from the test.

Have a powerful impact—by being more like yourself rather than less, through this groundbreaking approach taught at the London School of Economics and companies worldwide. Organizational psychologist and executive coach Rebecca Newton has found that even her most successful clients still want more of one quality: gravitas. They want their words to carry weight, to have a positive, lasting impact on those around them. Gravitas can seem like an elusive, intangible quality, but it isn't about adopting the style of another or being someone you're not. Newton draws on extensive research and experience coaching business leaders to show what underpins authentic gravitas and how anyone can develop it. She presents the counterintuitive idea that in order to be valued, we shouldn't spend all our time and energy trying to stand out from the crowd; instead, we should focus on the crowd--connecting with others and understanding their needs in order to make a significant difference. Newton debunks the myths of gravitas and gives readers the practical tools to develop it by: * Minimizing the gaps between intention, action, and impact * Remaining true to yourself while adapting to work successfully with people who have different styles * Choosing to be courageous regardless of how confident you feel--as you engage in courageous behaviors, confidence naturally builds Authentic gravitas extends beyond commanding presence in the room during a key meeting; it's about the small things you can do beforehand, during, and in all the spaces in between--to be someone who genuinely adds substantive value in the workplace and beyond.
