Synopsis

Wealth By Birth explores the significant yet often unseen impacts of inherited wealth on individuals and society. It argues that inherited wealth isn't just financial; it's a system of advantages affecting access to education, social networks, and opportunities. The book traces the evolution of inheritance laws and wealth accumulation, revealing how legal frameworks have historically shaped wealth distribution. For example, systems like primogeniture concentrated wealth, while others promoted broader distribution. The book investigates how inherited wealth translates into tangible advantages, like access to elite schools and valuable social connections, which compound over time. This perpetuates cycles of wealth and privilege, impacting social mobility and economic opportunity. Examining economic history and utilizing data analysis, the book offers a unique perspective by focusing on the systemic nature of inherited advantage, rather than individual cases. Structured to provide a comprehensive overview, Wealth By Birth begins by defining key concepts and then delves into the historical roots of wealth accumulation, legal frameworks, and the impact on education and careers. It concludes by proposing policy interventions to mitigate wealth inequality. With its accessible tone and blend of historical analysis and economic insight, the book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the dynamics of inequality.

    Investing Amid Low Expected Returns provides an evidence-based blueprint for successful investing when decades of market tailwinds are turning into headwinds. 
     
      
     
    For a generation, falling yields and soaring asset prices have boosted realized returns.  However, this past windfall leaves retirement savers and investors now facing the prospect of record-low future expected returns. Emphasizing this pressing challenge, the book highlights the role that timeless investment practices—discipline, humility, and patience—will play in enabling investment success. It then assesses current investor practices and the body of empirical evidence to illuminate the building blocks for improving long-run returns in today's environment and beyond. It concludes by reviewing how to put them together through effective portfolio construction, risk management, and cost control practices. 
     
     
     
    In this book, listeners will also find: the common investor responses so far to the low expected return challenge; extensive empirical evidence on the critical ingredients of an effective portfolio: major asset class premia, illiquidity premia, style premia, and alpha; discussions of the pros and cons of illiquid investments, factor investing, ESG investing, risk mitigation strategies, and market timing; and coverage of the whole top-down investment process.
