Description
Most of us don’t really know how to spend money. We chase after things that impress others but leave us feeling empty inside. Or, on the other hand, we hoard and save endlessly, fearing to spend on what could truly improve our lives. We often confuse admiration with envy, comfort with excess, and utility with status.
The Art of Spending Money is not about budgets, clever tricks, or one-size-fits-all plans. It’s about understanding the relationship you have with money, how it shapes your decisions, and how you can reshape it to make money work for you.
Morgan Housel, acclaimed author and financial thinker, has helped millions rethink how they earn, save, and invest. In this book, he turns his focus to the other side of the equation: how to spend wisely. With deep insight and warmth, he explains:
Why the most valuable return on investment is peace of mind
Why expectations matter more than income
Why handling money well is less about spreadsheets and more about self-awareness
This book is not about becoming rich. It’s about making the most of what you already have and learning to desire only what truly matters—a guide to living a richer, more fulfilling life through mindful spending.
