How do partners see themselves and each other in marriage? What are the benefits of running an emotional relationship with your heart? Recently, a new book published by Zhejiang People's Publishing House, "Compound Interest of Love: Using Economic Thinking to Talk About Love and Intimacy" (hereinafter referred to as "Compound Interest of Love"), intentionally or unintentionally cracked this proposition.
In the book, the author proposes the concept of "love compound interest". "Compound interest" comes from the concept of financial investment, if you only have a dollar now, but you have a way to keep your money doubled every day, theoretically, then in two months, all the money in the world is yours. This miraculous growth is compound interest. Buffett said that life is like a snowball, the most important thing is to find very wet snow and long slopes. According to Albert Einstein, compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world.

The author Huang Hui's point of view is that the happiness of life depends on the compound interest of accumulated love, and the most important thing is to live long and love to focus. If a person has multiple lovers, then his experience is scattered, and the compound interest that can eventually be harvested will be less than focusing on one person. "Love makes love, just like money makes money." Soft heart, love with all your heart. "Love" is an investment fund, and "Compound Interest of Love" is the income of this fund.
In my opinion, an essay must have some bright ideas, followed by some professional knowledge as background support. Happily, the book "The Compound Interest of Love" has done it, and a good writer, sometimes an evangelist, throws out his own views and benefits everyone.
After the author Huang Hui proposed the concept of "love compound interest", he unfolded from an economic perspective and explained the essence around daily topics such as love, marriage, and family. For example, he proposed that marriage is not a sale or a joint venture; marriage is the risk control of love's compound interest; mate selection is not shopping, nor is it a puzzle. For example, in the risk control article, his view is that the purpose of risk control is to counteract instincts. Because marriage as a wind control system includes both external laws, such as the provisions in the marriage law, and more importantly, two people harvest love compound interest together, and add internal self-discipline to each other (especially themselves) after they harvest compound interest. Based on this theory to look at cohabitation, the author provides a perspective: cohabitation is only one less than marriage, and there is less of a set of risk control mechanisms, just like the fund company has less risk control departments and risk control degrees.
According to this theory, it is actually not difficult to infer that whether it is an ordinary person or a star, the end of marriage is actually a failure of risk control, so it must bear a series of consequences brought about by the failure of risk control, including the collapse of human society, financial loss, career damage and so on. In my opinion, after reading a book, if you can solve some of the problems you think about, then such a book has the effect of opening the mind, which is a "useful book".
Reading such a book, from time to time the brain is open, and I feel a beam of light shining in from the top of your head, making your heart bright. I firmly believe in the author's words in the book: love is mutual achievement, marriage is co-evolution. I believe that this is not only a reminder of goodwill, but also a sharing of the author's life creed.
As for the author Huang Hui, his introduction in the book is: Lifelong learners, hidden in the city, quite a hidden meaning. However, this "big god" has written a number of professional books on economics: "What is a hedge fund", "Capital with Temperature", "The Logic of Governance: Separation of Power and Financial Power" and so on.
Huang Hui's identity is a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and a Financial Risk Manager (FRM), and perhaps the cross-border perspective is more transparent and worth thinking about than the articles of the emotional masters we often see.
