Throughout his legendary career, John Bogle-founder of the Vanguard mutual fund group and creator of the first index mutual fund--has helped investors build wealth the right way and led a tireless campaign to restore common sense to the investment world. Along the way, hes seen how destructive an obsession with financial success can be. Enough (PBC) puts this dilemma in perspective. Inspired in large measure by the hundreds of lectures Bogle has delivered to professional groups and college students in recent years, Enough seeks, paraphrasing Kurt Vonnegut, to poison our minds with a little humanity. Bogle considers what enough actually means as it relates to money, business, and life. The world of finance, he argues, is marked by too much cost, and not enough value; too much speculation, and not enough investment; too much complexity, and not enough simplicity. Similarly, our business world is focused too much on countingand salesmanship, and not enough on trust and stewardship; and our society atlarge is too obsessed with charisma and wealth, and not enough with characterand wisdom. Written in a straightforward and accessible style, Enough (PBC) is updated to inspire and enlighten in equal measure. Bogle offers his unparalleled insights on money, on the values we should emulate in our business and professional callings, and on what we should consider as the true treasures in our lives. After reading about money, business, and life from Bogle's perspective, readers are challenged to really think about what is really ‘enough.’
