Praise for A WEALTH OF WELL-BEING
"Meir Statman is a leading proponent of using the insights of behavioral finance to help investors achieve financial security. In this delightfully written book, laden with real-life stories, he shows that these insights are even more important in helping us achieve a meaningful, purposeful life. Everyone can benefit from this wise and helpful guide to life well-being."
--Burton G. Malkiel, author of A Random Walk Down Wall Street
"Behavioral finance has never been more important and more accessible as it is now, thanks to Meir Statman's wonderful synthesis of the subject for the non-specialist. By taking on some of the biggest issues each of us face in our daily lives--friendship, health, dating, parenting, and religion--Statman makes a dry academic subject come to life and, in the process, provides life-altering advice that will make us all better off."
-- Andrew W. Lo, Harris Professor of Finance at the MIT Sloan School of Management, author of Adaptive Markets
"Meir Statman is one of the wise souls of the financial world -- because he knows that finance is about so much more than stocks and bonds, greed and fear, promotions and paychecks. Dollars are important, but not nearly as important as most finance books suggest. Instead, as Meir makes clear in A Wealth of Well-Being, financial well-being is just one of the pillars that supports life well-being. And, in the end, isn't the goal not a fatter portfolio, but a richer life?"
-- Jonathan Clements, former personal finance columnist for The Wall Street Journal and founder of HumbleDollar
"Finances and well-being are, of course, deeply intertwined. Ideally, they are complementary. But mistakes in either can do great harm to the other. All readers can appreciate the wise and thoughtful check list provided by this book."
--Charles D. Ellis, author of Winning the Loser's Game
