    Crypto just crossed the tipping point, and everything you thought you knew about investing is about to change. The world's biggest institutions are pouring billions into bitcoin―while most mainstream investors are still sitting on the sidelines, frozen by fear. 
 
That's where The Intelligent Crypto Investor comes in. Backed by seven years of real-world results, this groundbreaking book shows how adding just a small slice of crypto (10% or less) to a balanced portfolio can dramatically improve long-term returns―outperforming traditional portfolios by more than 65%. Through the stories of legendary investors like Warren Buffett, Jack Bogle, and Cathie Wood, bestselling author John Hargrave unveils a clear, accessible strategy for adding bitcoin and other high-quality crypto assets to your portfolio―with minimal risk and maximum intelligence. 
 
You'll discover the simple 60/30/10 portfolio strategy that has crushed Wall Street; how legendary investors would think about crypto today; the three metrics that separate crypto winners from the wannabes; how to safely earn interest on your crypto through staking; and why Wall Street is quietly investing billions into crypto―and how you can do it better.

    A clear and concise roadmap for ethical business behavior using commonsense moral principles 
 
 
 
Business Ethics for Better Behavior concisely answers the three most pressing ethical questions business professionals face: What makes business practices right or wrong?; Why do normal, decent businesspeople of good will sometimes do the wrong thing?; and How can we use the answer to these questions to get ourselves, our coworkers, our bosses, and our employees to behave better? 
 
 
 
Bad behavior in business rarely results from bad will. Most people mean well much of the time. But most of us are vulnerable. We all fall into moral traps, usually without even noticing. 
 
 
 
Business Ethics for Better Behavior teaches business professionals, students, and other listeners how to become aware of those traps, how to avoid them, and how to dig their way out if they fall in. It integrates the best work in psychology, economics, management theory, and normative philosophy into a simple action plan for ensuring the best ethical performance at all levels of business practice. This is a book anyone in business, from an entry-level employee to CEO, can use.

    Deception is an inherent part of human interaction, woven into the fabric of communication, relationships, and society. It takes many forms, from outright lies to subtle misdirections, half-truths, and omissions. While deception is often associated with negative consequences, it is not always malicious. In some cases, it is used to protect feelings, maintain social harmony, or navigate complex situations. However, the fundamental nature of deception remains the same—it involves misleading others, either intentionally or through omission, to influence perception or behavior. 
At its core, deception exploits the gap between reality and perception. When someone is deceived, their understanding of a situation is altered, often leading them to make decisions based on false or incomplete information. This can happen in personal relationships, business dealings, politics, and even within an individual’s own mind. Deception is not limited to spoken or written words; it can also be conveyed through body language, selective sharing of information, or strategic silence. 
One of the key reasons people deceive is self-preservation. Whether to avoid punishment, escape embarrassment, or gain an advantage, deception often serves as a tool for personal protection. From childhood, individuals learn that certain truths may have negative consequences, leading them to develop ways to manipulate the truth. Over time, this can evolve into more sophisticated forms of deception, ranging from small white lies to elaborate schemes designed to control or mislead others.
