Eleanor Oakman: Introduction, Question #6
Reading the intro from the author, it seemed clear that that Charles Wheelan wants the readers to know that the book Naked Economics isn't some light read book for dumb people who want to get to know a little bit more about economics. The book is meant for smart people to watch him strip down all the lies and myths away from the reader and explaining it step by step for a more complex understanding. Reading the intro I learned that there are more misconceptions about the economy than people are actually willing to explain. What will be so difficult for me to understand is how deep the structure of our economy really is. Just by reading the introduction I can tell that the way I think now will have to change in order to connect and understand what the author Charles Wheelan is trying to explain. I usually think in the moment and have a hard time thinking for the future or planning about what will happen next, but reading Naked Economics, it's clear that I am going to have to force myself to read and think of the financial decisions and consequences for the future to understand the deeper thinking from the book.
