Money is annoying! I say that only meaning that it causes such huge problems in the world! But what would we do without it and I guess that's where economics comes in. I have to say though, I was a little relieved when he said that there wouldn't be any graphs or math in this book; I'm excited to learn about this subject through stories and scenarios that have taken place in recient history. The way he started out with a story made reading the introduction interesting!
It amazes me though how much economics affects everything in society! From insurance to mortgages to ethnic differences, I never knew it was that broad of a subject.
Insurance is a topic I'm interested in learning more about, learning how it works and how they "twist" the rules to make ends meet. The Hospital situation in the intro was interesting to see how not thinking of "everyone" and only thinking of "someone" could so drastically affect so many different kinds of people.
