/lit/ is a pretentious cesspool. can /biz/ recommend some good books (or even videos) on the psychology behind business/economics and what makes people buy stuff in general?

People buy what interests them or solves their problems. No book needed!

Ironically the Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels can give you some of the best insights into a capitalist society. Obviously their conclusions (communism) is absolute dog shit

Trading in the Zone
By Mark Douglas
great trading psychology book. It can be a bit dry and come off like a pep talk, but it might help you find some holes in your game.

Thinking Fast and Slow by (((Daniel Kahneman))). It's a really well written book about how people can be mentally jew'd.

>> No.11949381

if you want theory, influence by cialdini or any of those other meme pop culture books you'll ultimately learn nothing from like thinking fast and slow

if you want actual tactics, cashvertising

Unironically this. Read his analysis of capitalism as a system, understand the world you live in, then bail once he starts talking about his retarded plans. Marx is great for weeding out the feeble-minded since they get sucked into the communist vortex and achieve nothing.
