About Harlan Green
About Your Money: Popular Freakonomics
It is very difficult to cull from the financial news media what really happens behind the scenes on Wall St. and in Washington. Much of it has been masked from the public view, especially over the past 20 years. This has led to an abysmal ignorance of matters economic, which has enabled much of the financial excesses of late. I intend to pull back the veil of mystery in order to explain and analyze the meaning of the many changes to our economic system in this decade. Much of Popular Freakonomics is culled from my weekly syndicated columns – Popular Economics Weekly and The Mortgage Corner – that I have been writing for ten years. Enjoy, and feel free to comment. — Harlan Green, Turkey V
