BBQ Economics: How Money Works And Why It Matters

Author(s): Liam Dann

Economics

From interest rates to the price of cheese and everything in between, this is an essential guide to the New Zealand economy, how it works and why it matters.
Should I fix or float? Is everyone moving to Australia? What's with the price of cheese? Who controls the OCR? What do self-made billionaires know that you and I don't?
Veteran financial journalist Liam Dann has fielded as many money-related questions as he has enjoyed beers around the BBQ - and often at the same time.
In this book, he sets out to answer them all, sharing decades of insight, stories and quotes from prominent politicians, financial experts, and business moguls in a super-informative, entertaining introduction to money, how it works, what we should do with it, and why it matters.
