Knowing Enough: A Conversation About Money and Life and Figuring Out What to Do with Yours

Knowing Enough combines the penetrating insights into investing and life of John C. Bogle, the founder of Vanguard and the pioneer of index investing, and the priceless practical advice of William J. Bernstein, bestselling author of The Four Pillars of Investing and market historian. Their conversations were the centerpiece of Boglehead meetings until Bogle's passing on January 19, 2019.

The book combines Bogle's insights from his bestselling Enough and Bernstein's practical how-to, If You Can. Their goal: to inspire you to lead a meaningful life that reaches well beyond your net worth to touch upon matters of self-worth, and to provide you with the means of doing so. You'll also find:

● How to focus less on chasing financial success and more on living a meaningful life

● Insight into investing wisely and contributing to the common good

● Reflections on lessons learned from Bogle throughout his career

Written in the same conversational tone found between Bogle and Bernstein at Boglehead events, Knowing Enough challenges listeners to rethink their relationship with money, business, and society.
