Joseph Moore: The Despair Industrial Complex
from The Gist Hosted by Mike Pesca
Today on the Gist, parsing terrible geology analogies about gas prices dropping "like a rock" when they are actually shooting up like a rocket. Then, Joseph S. Moore joins the show to discuss his book, How to Get Rich in American History: 300 Years of Financial Advice That Worked and Didn't. He details his personal journey from a broke history graduate student to financial success, and breaks down centuries of American financial schemes, from 19th-century paper currencies to the modern "despair industrial complex." Finally, in the spiel, an analysis of former nuclear arms negotiator Wendy Sherman's recent BBC interview, and what the Obama administration's eagerness to secure the Iran nuclear deal reveals about American negotiation tactics and leverage.
