Our fixation with financial success is placed into perspective by John Bogle.

John C. Bogle, the founder of the Vanguard Mutual Fund Group and the designer of the first index mutual fund, has spent his storied career assisting clients in building wealth the correct way and leading a persistent battle to restore common sense to the financial industry. Along the way, he's witnessed firsthand how damaging a desire for financial achievement can be. Now, with Enough, he puts the problem in context.

Enough, inspired in part by the hundreds of talks Bogle has given to professional organizations and college students in recent years, aims to "poison our minds with a little compassion," as Kurt Vonnegut put it. Bogle attentively explores what "enough" truly means in terms of money, business, and life, page after page.

Bogle's unrivalled wisdom on money and what we should value as genuine jewels in our lives is revealed, as well as the principles we should mimic in our business and professional endeavors.
There are some thought-provoking life lessons about our unique responsibilities in society in this book.

This innovative book, written in a clear and approachable way, explores what it means to have "enough" in a culture that is more focused on status and score-keeping.
