Mind Your Money

In this episode of Mind Your Money, we talk about how much money it takes for people to feel rich and how social networks influence the perception of wealth. We also discuss how early and exorbitant levels of success can create hidden debt that eventually needs to be repaid, and whether artificial intelligence has earned the hype and investment it has attracted. Morgan and Doug speak with Cass Sunstein, the Robert Walmsley University Professor at Harvard, co-author of Nudge, and author of the upcoming book Decisions about Decisions. Sunstein shares two ways to make better investment decisions, explains why we believe the things we do, and breaks down why loss aversion is an obstacle to economic well-being.

In this episode we discuss the perils of trying to get rich quick, and how sometimes the fastest way to get rich is to go slow. Morgan Housel and Doug Boneparth also talk about the cost of success and the increasing connection between money and mental health. Later in the show, Kevin Kelly, the co-founder and former executive editor of Wired Magazine, joins to share wisdom from his new book "Excellent Advice for Living."

Morgan Housel and Doug Boneparth discuss the brutal reality that most companies will end up in the corporate graveyard, why Elon Musk is calling for a pause in A.I. experiments, the concept of mental liquidity, and how conviction in investing can be dangerous.

Morgan Housel and Doug Boneparth discuss how yelling "fire" in a crowded Twitter thread can lead to a crisis, why individuals always feel gloomy about their personal finances, and what the layoff wave in tech means for the industry's health moving forward.
