This looks like a must-read! "Macro: The Economic Models That Shape Our World" by Greg Kaplan (available in November). "In clear and engaging prose, Chicago economist Greg Kaplan demystifies how our everyday behavior, including how we spend and save, connects to the biggest questions in fiscal and monetary policy. Tracing the evolution of modern macroeconomics from Keynes to today, he guides readers through the models that are often used to explain our economy, uncovers their flaws, and reveals what cutting-edge research tells us about managing the economy in good times and bad. The journey culminates in HANK, a macroeconomic model co-created by Kaplan that is more consistent with reality. Macro offers a timely, new framework for understanding and shaping economics in the real world." amzn.to/4xt6MSR

A man working as a welder at SpaceX for $28 an hour has just become a millionaire. Juan Hernandez, who came from Mexico, welded rockets for SpaceX at $28 an hour. SpaceX gave him $10,000 in stock when he went full time in 2015, and he bought more with every paycheck for 10 years. $SPCX is now trading at $167, making his shares worth over $1 million.
