Happy Money.

By Elizabeth Dunn.

A good book. Well researched. It easily lends itself to a dense summary…

  1. Buy Experiences. People are happier buying experiences over things. Be aware that there are things that lend them selves to experiences—Bicycles for example
  2. Make it a Treat. You will be much happier with a latte you buy once a week than a latte you have every day.
  3. Buy time. Spend money outsourcing your most dreaded tasks—cleaning, taxes.
  4. Pay Now. Consume Later. You will be happier purchasing a vacation well in advance.
  5. Invest in Others. You will be happier buying a gift for others, then for yourself.
