May 18, 2022 Behavioral Investing

“Rich” is a number, “wealth” is a mindset.

Dr. Brian Portnoy, one of the world’s leading experts on the psychology of money, joins the podcast to discuss his book The Geometry of Wealth: How To Shape a Life of Money and Meaning. Brian explains how money fits into your happiness and the life you want to lead (not the other way around)—it’s what he calls “funded contentment.” Brian also answers the big questions: Does money buy happiness? And how do you strike the balance between more and enough?
