Finance is a field that deals with the study of investments. It includes the dynamics of assets and liabilities over time under conditions of different degrees of uncertainty and risk.

Finance can be broken into three different sub-categories: public finance, corporate finance and personal finance.

“ Forecasts may tell you a great deal about the forecaster; they tell you nothing about the future. ”

“ If the financial system has a defect, it is that it reflects and magnifies what we human beings are like. Money amplifies our tendency to overreact, to swing from exuberance when things are going well to deep depression when they go wrong. Booms and busts are products, at root, of our emotional volatility. ”
― Niall Ferguson
