About this listen
Unravel the complex relationship between finances and life well-being
In A Wealth of Well-Being: A Holistic Approach to Behavioral Finance, Professor Meir Statman, established thought leader in behavioral finance, explores how life well-being, the overarching aim of individuals in the third generation of behavioral finance, is underpinned by financial well-being, and how life well-being extends beyond financial well-being to family, friendship, religion, health, work, and education.
Combining recent scientific findings by scholars in finance, economics, law, medicine, psychology, and sociology with real-life stories at the intersection of finances and life, this book allows listeners to clearly see how finances are intertwined with life well-being. In this book, listeners will learn:
- How dating, marriage, widowhood, and divorce are all affected by finances and affect them
- Why the relationship between parents, grandparents, children, and friends changes as finances fluctuate
- How finances affect choices of education, such as colleges, and how these choices vary across different cultures around the world

This series of talks is on one of the most esoteric treatises in the world. It will show you the way to become more than the body and the way to bloom - how not to remain a seed but to become a golden flower. What, in India, they call the one thousand-petalled lotus, in China they call the golden flower. It is a symbol that represents perfection, totality. Moreover, the flower represents the actualization of the potential - the beauty, the grandeur, the splendor of being.

Improved my understanding of behavioral finance
The author is a connection on LinkedIn and messaged me about this book. I’m glad he did; as a behavioral finance practitioner and CFP, I now have a better understanding of how behavioral finance fits in life wellbeing. A lot of great information in this book, I recommend it to everyone, especially financial advisors.

Great insight and review of well-being in the modern age
Meir Statman does great in giving insight and reviewing the key points that affect well-being in individuals living in today's society, and how they may have changed from the past. I feel the book touches on the human action of individuals and how we each individually strive for different things to embrace the feeling of well-being. Very well written and highly recommended to anyone looking to dive into the psychology of not only financial well-being, but life well-being as a whole.
