How They Get You

Have you ever felt like your wallet has a slow leak you just can’t find?

Welcome to the rigged carnival of modern life, where the games are broken, the prizes are fake and somehow you are still paying $28 dollars to park near the entrance.

In this sharp, funny and empowering audiobook, finance journalist Chris Kohler exposes the sneaky economics of everyday life — from streaming subscriptions and food delivery services to expensive car loans and confusing pension schemes.

Read by the author himself, Chris explains how the systems are designed to make you spend without noticing and how you can start turning the tables.

You’ll learn how to spot the traps, protect your cash and outsmart:
-loyalty schemes built to keep you hooked
-free trials that quietly charge you later
-supermarkets and services that steer you towards spending more
-late fees, gift cards and the fine print that bites back

Packed with real stories, smart analysis and laugh-out-loud moments, How They Get You helps you see how money really moves around and gives you the tools to change the game for good.

By the end, you’ll know exactly how they get you — and how to stop letting them.
