Master optimal decisions about spending and investing with a durable twist. This rigorous guide shows how to model consumption and portfolio choices when goods last over time and habits shape our preferences. With clear math and practical steps, you’ll learn to translate theory into workable rules for real markets.
This edition blends theory with numerical methods, offering a concrete path from continuous-time models to discrete, computable schemes. It emphasizes how durability and habit formation change the value of wealth, and it explains how the equilibrium risk premium in a financial market can vary over time and state. While the material is technical, the presentation builds from foundational ideas to implementable algorithms and insights.
