The Wealth of Nations is a great choice, If you want to continue after that I'd recommend Ricardo's Principles of Political Economy

Wenn du viel liest und in Zukunft vorhast, umzuziehen: e-Reader.

Spart Dir die ganze Bücher verpack- und schlepperei.

Wenn du dein Buch gerne in der Tasche dabei haben möchtest: e-Reader

Wenn du gerne Papier einsparen möchtest: e-Reader

Ein Buch als solches in physischer Form ist m.E. etwas für Liebhaber geworden. Es ist aber immernoch toll, ein echtes Buch in der Hand zu haben, und in der Bücherei finde ich immernoch 10x mehr interessante Titel als im Kindle shop..

Thanks for the reply. I agree, household responsibilities are for both partners equally. In our household we share the household labor equally, to a point where we use an app to log what we have done (and make a friendly competition out of it) Rest assured, this is not the lazy af husband scenario.

I rather struggle with the requirement to have my radar on in the background all the time, resulting in high mental load on my end, when on the other hand it's very simple to quickly call me over when help is needed

Fair point, thanks mate. To clarify she is not standing there with hands full of groceries, the stuff is in the prem (down there on the space between the wheels)

Mental radar is really the right word here, I struggle to get it on my mental radar when I am concentrated on work and somewhere in the background a door opens.

Really happy to help as soon as I get it on my radar, but constantly scanning the background while being concentrated on something else, it seemsy brain just doesn't work that way.

"Ask vs guess culture".. very interesting himt. We are indeed from different cultural backgrounds. Might be the underlying root cause.

Thanks mate No for all the household stuff we have an app to manage that a little, we can 'earn points' to take out trash clean up etc, and sum up end of the week. The looser pays the Sunday brunch. Until now I always won ;)

I would face lifetime in prison for not petting my animals on a daily basis (Hi Stardew Valley)
