Join us for an eye-opening virtual conversation with veteran journalist Paul Vigna on Wednesday, Nov. 11 at 2:00pm via the Scotch Plains Public Library. We will examine his provocative book, The Almightier: How Money Became God, Greed Became Virtue, and Debt Became Sin, in which he explores the question: how did money go from a tool of commerce into the dominant faith of modern society?
Vigna takes readers on a sweeping historical journey from Renaissance Florence to today’s global financial markets.
Whether you are interested in economic history, personal finance, or the hidden cultural forces shaping modern life, this talk is sure to pique your interest. Paul Vigna is an author, journalist, editor and speaker, with a particular focus on capital markets and cryptocurrency.
Register today to learn more about how devotion to money has replaced religion as the foundation of our society.
