A Wealth of Well-Being: A Holistic Approach to Behavioral Finance

byMeir Statman

Meir Statman broadens behavioral finance beyond portfolio returns to examine what wealth is ultimately for. He connects money with family, health, work, community, identity, generosity, and life satisfaction, showing how financial choices express both practical needs and emotional values. The book uses research to explain common errors while resisting the idea that every nonstandard preference is irrational. Statman offers a holistic account of well-being in which investments are tools rather than ends, and good financial decisions depend on understanding the many benefits people seek from their resources.
