    Morgan Housel: Understand & Apply the Psychology of Money to Gain Greater Happiness
    Dec 2 2024
    In this episode, my guest is Morgan Housel, an expert in private wealth generation and management and author of the bestselling book The Psychology of Money. We discuss how desiring, pursuing, saving, and spending money impact our psychology and perception of wealth. We explore why people tend to either overspend or oversave and examine the most common mistakes made in the pursuit of financial freedom. Additionally, we discuss how to best use money — and one’s relationship with it — as a tool to create psychological security, freedom, and a deeper sense of life purpose. We also delve into the impact of purchases, social media, and wealth signaling on our internal reward circuits, the dangers of using money as a gauge of career progress or self-worth, and the healthiest psychological stances to adopt while building wealth at any level. By the end of the episode, listeners will have gained numerous practical tools for making smarter financial decisions and should have a clearer understanding of the role money plays in their psychology, happiness, and life.

We discuss the purpose of the inner voice in your head and its impact on emotional well-being and motivation.

So interesting!

This isn't a podcast I'd normally listen to, but I'm finding it fascinating. I started listening in order to improve my sleep, but it's continued to be my go to podcast when I'm driving to the mountains to ski.

Legs: hormonal and metabolism

Could you, in one of your next episodes, go into more depth on how legs set a good process of hormonal release and metabolism for the weak? Big leg day advocate!

Solid introduction to small changes making impact

The language was a bit medically 'heavy' at times, but got a lot out of it. I'll be requesting a hormone panel from my physician and have already ordered Dr. Gottfried's book discussing horomone balance.

Andrew Huberman - Nobel Peace Prize in Medicine

This catchy title for my review is untrue, but not too far off the mark. Andrew Huberman presents the perfect level of detail on ALL the most pressing subjects in modern living. Sleep, exercise, diet, hormones, brain chemistry - every topic you could want to know more about. Andrew dishes it all up in a humorous, straightforward way with a nice mix of scientific and lay terminology. The broadcast provides highly entertaining insight into complex bodily interactions that includes actionable steps for optimal outcomes. Thank you for creating it and having the endurance to create 100+ free episodes. The uber-qualified guests on the show are fascinating, as well!
