Jim Paul's meteoric rise took him from a small town in Northern Kentucky to governor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, yet he lost it all--his fortune, his reputation, and his job--in one fatal attack of excessive economic hubris. In this honest, frank analysis, Paul and Brendan Moynihan revisit the events that led to Paul's disastrous decision and examine the psychological factors behind bad financial practices in several economic sectors. This book--winner of a 2014 Axiom Business Book award gold medal--begins with the unbroken string of successes that helped Paul achieve a jet-setting lifestyle and land a key spot with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. It then describes the circumstances leading up to Paul's $1.6 million loss and the essential lessons he learned from it--primarily that, although there are as many ways to make money in the markets as there are people participating in them, all losses come from the same few sources. Investors lose money in the markets either because of errors in their analysis or because of psychological barriers preventing the application of analysis. While all analytical methods have some validity and make allowances for instances in which they do not work, psychological factors can keep an investor in a losing position, causing him to abandon one method for another in order to rationalize the decisions already made. Paul and Moynihan's cautionary tale includes strategies for avoiding loss tied to a simple framework for understanding, accepting, and dodging the dangers of investing, trading, and speculating.Binding Type: Hardcover

Great for daily use under makeup
First, I'd like to say that this sunscreen stick is really convenient. It's moisturizing and blends in clear, so no white cast. Perfect for wearing under makeup, and it's non-comedogenic, so no worries about breakouts. Love how easy it is to apply and how lightweight it feels. Overall, a good choice for everyday sun protection.

Genuinely One of My Favorites Sunscreens in Existence
I use stick sunscreen around my eyes on a daily basis. It's less likely to run into my eyes and sting than regular sunscreen. However there can still be issues. Sometimes it still irritates my eye area, looks weird under makeup, pills, or (as with most mineral sunscreens) leaves a weird cast around my eye area.
I was very pleasantly surprised by this sunscreen. It feels like very light weight balm that feels heavenly on the skin. It isn't sticky, greasy, and doesn't have a weird sunscreen smell. It's moisturizing without being too moisturizing, if that makes sense.
Given the price point I am absolutely amazed at the quality. If you repackaged this sunscreen and sold it as a luxury product I would be none the wiser. This will be a new staple in my daily routine.

Good for on-the-go sun protection
This is a solid purchase because the compact size makes it easy to carry around. The velvety finish feels nice on the skin and blends in clear, which is great for all skin tones. It’s also quick and easy to apply.

I recommend this product for daily use
I recommend this product because it's gentle on my skin and works well for daily use. The compact size makes it easy to carry around, and it provides good UV protection with a velvety finish. Plus, it layers under makeup nicely and adds a subtle glow. The moisturizing formula keeps my skin hydrated. Overall, a great travel-friendly sunscreen that's non-comedogenic and suits all skin tones.

Great appearance but fumes burn eyes
I like the easy application and shear appearance. Slightly dewy look. I have been using for over a year but had to stop. Each time my eyes would become more sensitive to the “fumes” wafting off my cheek bones. Unfortunately I bought three sticks because I liked it so much, but now I just apply it to my legs.
