The Spectrum of Wealth Oct 25, 2021

Show notes

Inspired by the ideas in Morgan Housel's book The Psychology of Money, Jesse discusses the meaning of the word "wealth," and how we define wealth in our own lives. Is it just about money in the bank, or is it about our physical health too? Or family health, or liking our job, or having options in life? It turns out, wealth can mean many different things, and perhaps it's best to look at wealth as a spectrum rather than simply a pile of money in the bank.
