Developing the right money mindset to live happily, securely and longer. We all strive for a beautiful life. A life full of joy, meaning and personal fulfilment. We seek moments of happiness, enriching relationships and fulfilling activities. At the same time, we want stability and security. However, the fact is: we also live in a world that's constantly and rapidly changing due to technological advances, socioeconomic changes and global events. That makes life and financial planning tough. And to further complicate matters, we are living longer and healthier lives! The 100-year life is very much a reality today. How do we make better decisions for our financial and life planning? How much money should we earn? And how much should we spend and save?

As well as developing the right money mindset, the author argues we need to understand what our beliefs and emotions lead us to, what brings us joy and purpose, if we are to make better life decisions ? and use money to enable that life.
