  • Today we dive deep into the connection between happiness and money, looking at a host of theories and studies that have examined the important factors in this discussion. The main material referenced is the fascinating, The Happiness Hypothesis by Jonathan Haidt, and during the episode, we get to look at a great selection of the findings and claims in the book. To kick things off, we consider the broad ideas around how money can stimulate happiness, as well as its addictive aspects, before examining a few of the most prominent lenses used for measuring different kinds of happiness. Talking about the ideas of Hedonia and Eudaimonia, the influence of forecasting and the future, and the effects of different kinds of spending, we see the common threads as well as the distinctions between these models of measurement. Ultimately all of this material should hopefully enable us to live out a better life with this information in mind, and we spend some time reflecting on some of the key takeaways that seem to come to the surface in the happiness debate. To finish off, we field some listener questions on avoiding spending, and returns on investment, before diving into this week's bad advice featuring a video starring Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Mark Cuban!

    I am a multi-year listener to this podcast but just starting tuning in through RUclips the past few weeks. This format is incredible. You guys are doing a great job. Just so you are aware, I know dozens of people in my immediate circle that listen weekly. You (Ben and Cameron) are making an immense, positive impact that radiates farther than you realize. We love you guys. Great work and take care. -Ben K from Calgary.

    I didn’t start until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, and got 5 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made. Great video! Thanks for sharing!

    My most memorable vacations were frugal adventures. A canoe trip through Quetico provincial park was probably my favorite. The hard part is vacationing in the winter if you’re from Canada or northern US. You have to enjoy Nordic skiing!

    • @AirsoftTeamOSMD
      @AirsoftTeamOSMD 3 года назад

      VIG and VDC are relatively unreliable ways to get exposure. VIG is probably the best way we have to get small exposure to CMA and RMW. AVUV has good RMW. So perhaps AVUV and VDC

    I have a conflict with that advise of spending in other people.
    I constantly give money to other people(mainly my parents and charity) but I don't feel good when I do that, in fact, I feel like if I was losing that money, so it hurts.
    I do it not because I feel happy to do it, but because my personal beliefs.
    One could argue that acting according to my personal beliefs makes me feel more realized and acting against them would cause cognitive dissonanse. However, I'm still wondering if I could get more happiness from that with minimal changes.

    Sounds like FIRE (version of it that focuses on stoping to work anyway) is a bit flawed

    • @stuckupcurlyguy
      @stuckupcurlyguy Год назад

      Yeah. My friend followed the FIRE method for about 7 years. His relationship became very toxic. At the end of things he lost a lot of money when he had to split his house with his partner. We shouldn't aim to stop working, we should aim to work on something that matters, with good conditions, under our control.
