Book description
Our relationship with money is one that lasts a lifetime. It can be as
important as family life, as competitive as work, and as exciting and
secretive as love. Yet books about money tend to take one of two routes:
a) how to get more, or b) how to deal with less.
This book turns these questions upside down, and looks not at money
itself, but at the way we view it. How does money drive us? How does it
frighten us? And how can it help us make sense of who we are?
Money is too important a part of life for us not to worry about, but by
approaching it differently, we can change the way we perceive its worth.
With surprising and enlightening new insights, How to Worry Less
About Money
will help you realise what material wealth really means. John Armstrong
