Blurb:

Can Money Buy Happiness? How to Maximize your HQ (Happiness Quotient)? What is the Path to 'Financial MOKSHA'? How to use your finances to Maximize your Potential? Why is Money like 'Oxygen'?

BUDDHA on WALL-STREET is where western philosophies of maximizing wealth meet the eastern philosophies of moderation and maximizing happiness. This is where the United States of America meets Bhutan.

While BUDDHA on WALL-STREET is primarily a book on investments it seeks to redefine happiness from the perspective of ancient wisdom drawing on the source of true happiness. It is materialism with contentment.

BUDDHA on WALL-STREET not only equips the reader with knowledge and wisdom to effectively maximize returns and manage one's investments but also lays out a balanced approach to maximize one's happiness.

In the material world there is a single pointed focus towards attaining wealth. This defeats the purpose it intends to serve, ending in misery rather than happiness. The book deals with the mechanics of how to maximize one's Happiness Quotient (HQ).

The Book is a practical guide on how one should balance out one's primal desires for infinite wealth with one's HQ (Happiness Quotient). It is about securing our future with the right investments and managing our lives with the right attitude.

My verdict: 

A. Venkatasubramanian, the author of 'The real deal' and 'Nuggets of wisdom' makes  an wonderful job on 'Buddha on wall street'. The cover page shows a picture of lord Buddha and rays of light with numbers behind him. The captions 'Knowledge, Wisdom, Financial Moksha and Bliss' catches my eyes and it's really goes well with the content of the book. I have read any other book like this one. This is a self help book for finance. Students, who are doing their graduation is much helpful. This is not only for financial management, it is also written on gaining happiness by financial strategies.  Author has also written about HQ , that is happiness quotient. I enjoyed the whole book and it seems to me as a powerhouse of knowledge. Much recommended.
