This groundbreaking personal finance resource shows you how to
manage thinking, feelings, and behavior so that you can handle your
money to get what you want-not what someone else thinks you ought
to have to be happy. Financial planning and money management are
hot topics, but most books don't help you figure out what you truly
want your money to provide for you. Exploring links between money
and happiness, this guide is based on sound theory and on the
latest research in psychology, behavioral economics, happiness, and
neuroscience. It will give people at any stage of life-especially
those of you in college or starting careers-the tools to plot your
own course through the financial world and, ultimately, use money
as a gateway to a happy and fulfilling life. Stephenson and
Hutchins introduce core concepts that support strong, sound
decision making around money, based on personal values, attitudes
and beliefs, and goals. Practical, information-gathering questions
and exercises help you uncover your true financial needs. The final
two chapters show you how to integrate the relevant information
with your goals and develop a plan for success. Along the way, you
will learn such things as how to plan for your long-term goals, how
to delay certain types of gratification for another type of instant
gratification (peace of mind), how to think about credit, and how
to make decisions on such issues as renting or buying, investing or
saving, and borrowing a lot, a little, or not at all. Finally, you
will come away with new ideas for how to have fun on a budget.
Focuses on the reader's own situation and issues and provides
practical knowledge and advice Shows readers how to work out what
they really want their money to do, how to set goals for what they
want, how to build financial plans to achieve those goals, and how
to stick to their plans Connects older traditional knowledge with
the latest research in neuroscience and psychology Explains why the
reader might think in a particular way so that he/she can
understand that to be human is to be complex and sometimes
irrational Links areas such as visioning, goal setting, deferring
gratification, financial planning, and behavioral change, and sets
them into a context so the reader can understand, remember, and use
the ideas
