Morning Money: Comic industry booming as fans gather for London Comic Con
MCM London Comic Con starts today, the largest gathering of comic fans in Europe with over 80 thousand visitors. And today comic books have super powers, thanks to franchising. There's a spate of superhero movies being released by massive studios and raking in millions in profits - not to mention all that merchandising and spin off products. Rich Prinn is from the world's largest science fiction, fantasy and cult entertainment retailer Forbidden Planet. He told Matt Cox nobody quite expected the boom in comics to be this big

Book review: "Loaded: Money, Psychology and How to Get Ahead without leaving your values behind."
How would you describe your relationship with money? Do you regard it as a means to an end, or something that isn't worth thinking about until the postman drops a reminder of an unpaid bill through the mail box? It's that perception of money that will ultimately shape how well - or badly - we manage our finances. Why are some people better at handling money than others? Are they just naturally capable or do they have the right set of values to be financially successful? Those are just some of the ideas explored in the book, "Loaded: Money, Psychology and How to Get Ahead without leaving your values behind." Its author is Doctor Sarah Newcombe, a behavioural economist at the investment research group "Morningstar", who joins Juliet in the studio.

The Book Review: John Piper's 'The Way to Trade Better'
Does the idea of trading stocks, options or other financial products appeal to you, or is it something that's better off in the hands of the market professionals? Anyone can trade although some people never make it beyond the first hurdle, especially after losing money. Yet its worth staying the course because with a little bit of patience its possible to learn how to read a market and find the strategies that turn losses into gains. It may sound a bit too good to be true but according to author John Piper its definitely not a fairy tale. He should know because he has been trading for over 30 years with considerable success. His new book, "The Way to Trade Better" explains how to get started and the mindset required for financial success. John Piper joins Juliette Foster on the line to discuss his strategy.

The Book Review: Jez Rose's 'Flip The Switch: Achieve Extraordinary Things with Simple Changes to How You Think'
Have you ever wondered why some people get what they want while others have to struggle? Are they phenomenally talented or do they have the knack of being in the right place at the right time for good things to happen? Surprisingly luck - and to a certain extent talent - don't have much to do with it. How far you go in life and whether you achieve your potential, depends on how you think and approach situations. So how easy is it to change the thought and behaviour patterns inherited from childhood, into something positive and beneficial? According to Jez Rose, an author and award winning behaviour specialist, anyone can do it....just as long as you follow a few rules outlined in his new book "Flip The Switch". Jez Rose joins Juliette Foster to discuss the book in more detail.
