The results are enthralling." --Associated Press A timely and arresting new look at affluence by the New York Times bestselling author whose intellect is "omnivorous, roving, and humane" (The Cut)."My adult life can be divided into two distinct parts," Eula Biss writes, "the time before I owned a washing machine and the time after."

A trailblazing exploration of how we can plan better for the future—our own, our families’, and our society’s.Many of us never learned—or have forgotten—how to make smart decisions for the long run. In a world where immediate satisfaction is the norm, it’s easy to avoid thinking ahead. Whether it’s decisions about our health (our chronic overuse of antibiotics has triggered a shocking rise in superbugs that are resistant to them), our finances (20 percent of Americans save nothing for retirement), or our jobs (we slash R&D budgets to improve short-term profit and then can’t keep pace with competitors), we lack the tools to choose what’s best for the future. Today more than ever, we need to know how to make better long-term decisions—for ourselves, our families, and the world.Bina Venkataraman understands this.
