Robert Shiller is an excellent professor. He had touched on so many areas of finace. In his closing remarks, he gave the timeline of personal finance as 100 years. He is absolutely right, In 100 years everything changes completely.

This is a good course for people who don't know finances. Learning tecniques and programme is perfect but it needs to be updated:

-Currencies and Crypto currencies.

-Evergrande crisis in China

-Influence of COVID on finances.

Thank you

Good course to learn about behavioral finance. I’m so surprised about the knowledge of Professor Robert Shiller, here goes one of my favorite phrases: “Finance is not about getting rich, it is about making civilization work better.”

I think that I invested my time very well in taking this course. I learned so much. I liked the student´s forums. I think that if I had a textbook as a reference or complement it would help me out so much to answer the quiz easier.

Professor Schiller made the course enjoyable. He is the biggest reason I enjoyed the course. It increased my knowledge vastly in the history and present of financial markets, especially that I come from a non-finance background.
