ruth About Money: A Deep Dive explores the untaught architecture of modern finance. Written not by a banker, but by a hotelier and father, the book begins with a simple question: What is money, really? Marc Reader takes readers through the unspoken decisions that shaped the financial world - from Bretton Woods to the present day; from gold to fiat; from trust to inflation. In clear, accessible language, he explains how the global monetary system was quietly reengineered in 1971, and why the consequences continue to shape everyday life. This is not a book about budgeting or stock tips. It is a book about understanding - how money works, who benefits, and why the system resists reform. Grounded in history, globally relevant, and informed by over a thousand hours of research, Truth About Money does not sell panic or promise riches. It offers something rarer: clarity. For readers of all backgrounds. No finance degree required.
