What we have been reading - 5th September 2022
Here’s what caught our eye over the past week or so:
The Difference Between Wealth and Well-Being: I have never heard the story of Hetty Green before. She sounds miserable and looks miserable.
The Pros and Cons of Being Wealthy: I love this article from UK blogger Monevator.
All the Personal-Finance Books are Wrong: A good article that looks at the difference between what works on a spreadsheet versus what works in real-life.
Is now a bad time to retire?: This article follows on nicely from an article I shared last week, which you can read here.
Forty-One Quick Tips for Health, Happiness, and Wealth: This will take you less than five minutes to read and every single tip is awesome.
Big Beliefs: It's worth paying attention to the things that Morgan Housel believes in.
Exceptions to the Rule: This is such an important concept for investors to understand - 'always' and 'never' have no place in the world of finance where rules are made to be broken.
FINALLY:
The Seven Habits That Lead to Happiness in Old Age: If you want late-life happiness, doing these things now will give you a good chance at living the good life.
ENJOY!
