The End of Money: Counterfeiters, Preachers, Techies, Dreamers--and the Coming Cashless Society Audiobook

" An interesting thought experiment into what cash and money mean to our society and the global economy "

" The End of Money is a good book describing what money will look like in the future. However, much of the book left me unsatisfied and wanting more from the author. Also, while I enjoyed the personal accounts of the author's travels, it overpowered the real information. More information or a wider variety of monetary stories would make the book much more enjoyable. "

" A thought-provoking piece on cash and money; got me thinking about a lot of the relevant issues, and how I use money myself. "

" A quick read, and interesting enough, although I was hoping there would be more discussion of digital currencies. "

" Informative, interesting & easy. Learned a bit, knew a lot already (being in banking). Would recommend it to anybody. I'm torn in my opinion if I'd prefer a cashless society or not, but slightly leaning toward that. I hardly carry or use cash these days as it is. "

" A lot of repetition about a potentially fascinating topic: money. I don't feel any more enlightened having read this book. "

" Contains the germ of some interesting ideas; I would have rated it better if the ideas were given more in depth treatment "

" Ended too abruptly. Author has a knack for being conversational and linear making the material accessible and endearing. Enjoyable and easy read. "

" Interesting, but never really got started. I think my new rule is that if your book is about your own personal experience of researching and reporting the subject, then you are either a)Thomas Friedman or b) not doing enough reporting and research to teach much about the subject. Or both. "

" Very interesting listen, but I'm not sure I'd have given it such a good review if I read it. The subject matter lends itself to a one-day binge lecture listen. "

" An entertaining and thought provoking essay on currency...it's history, current uses and its possible future. "

" A light read about how physical money will be replaced with a computerized equivalent which is good since money has germs and is easily faked. "

" Couldn't finish it. It wasn't what I expected. I wanted more about underground currencies. "
