  "Liberalism In the Classical Tradition" is a seminal work written by Ludwig von Mises, an Austrian economist and philosopher. Originally published in 1927 as "Die Gemeinwirtschaft: Untersuchungen über den Sozialismus" (Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis), it was later translated into English in 1962.

Ludwig von Mises argues against socialism and interventionism, emphasizing the importance of private property, voluntary exchange, and the market process.

  The Planning Fallacy -...

  The allure of optimism has been a driving force behind humanity’s greatest achievements. It propels innovation, inspires ambition, and fosters resilience in the face of adversity. Yet, this same optimism can lead us astray, particularly when it comes to planning and executing tasks. The belief that everything will unfold as envisioned, without significant setbacks or challenges, is an enticing illusion. This overconfidence, while comforting, often masks the reality of time and resource constraints, resulting in a phenomenon known as the planning fallacy. 
  At its core, the planning fallacy arises from our tendency to underestimate the time, effort, and costs required to complete tasks, regardless of past experiences. Even seasoned professionals and experienced teams are not immune to this bias, often succumbing to unrealistic timelines and budgets. The hidden costs of this fallacy ripple through personal lives, businesses, and large-scale projects, leaving behind missed deadlines, financial overruns, and unmet expectations. 
  On an individual level, the planning fallacy can manifest in simple daily scenarios. People frequently underestimate how long it will take to commute, complete errands, or prepare for events. This miscalculation leads to stress, frustration, and a constant feeling of being behind. In professional settings, it becomes even more pronounced, as teams juggle complex projects with high stakes. Unrealistic deadlines can push employees to their limits, fostering burnout and reducing overall productivity.

  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  Some say that both the world wars were the result of a massive, world-wide conspiracy by an illusive secret society known as the illuminati. Others say the wars were really all part of the same grand European power struggle between the old world and the new, between royalty, politicians, communists and capitalists. Others say it was just a series of unfortunate events. 
   
  What is the truth? Do men plot? Yes they do. Are there secret organisations that have manipulated society and even brought about war? Yes there are. Did they create the first and second world wars? Yes they did. Are they behind the rise of the Nazi Party? Yes. 
   
  The history of world war two is incomplete. A massive element has been left out of the history books. The role of secret societies.

  The Theory of the Leisure Class

  "The Theory of the Leisure Class" is a book written by Thorstein Veblen, an American economist and sociologist. The book is a seminal work of economic sociology and a critique of the consumption-driven culture of the late 19th century United States. 
  Veblen's central thesis is that the upper class, or the "leisure class," engages in conspicuous consumption as a way of displaying their social status and wealth. This behavior, he argues, is not only wasteful and unproductive but also harmful to society as a whole, as it perpetuates a culture of inequality and social stratification. 
  Veblen also discusses the role of technology in shaping society, arguing that the development of machines and industrial processes has led to the emergence of a new class of technocrats who control the means of production and wield significant power over the rest of society. 
  Overall, "The Theory of the Leisure Class" is a critical examination of the social and economic structures that shape modern society. It remains a landmark work in the field of economic sociology and has had a profound influence on the study of consumption, social stratification, and the role of technology in society
