Description
A group of aliens who are uncertain about how long they can live on Earth have realized that to survive on Earth, they must have money. Despite the arduous process of making money, they still tirelessly purchase a large amount of desired items every day. These aliens have officially embarked on the road to making money, and even the millionaire lifestyle of Aurora is fraught with danger. Can they continue to live safely on Earth? Can they learn how to use money wisely?
"Humans, Tempted by Money" has been published, and this time the theme is "money"—the thing that seems most indispensable to humans but also the most troublesome. Humans often feel uneasy when facing money, after all, it is difficult to live without it. This book will reveal the mysteries of money from the perspectives of neuroscience and psychology.
