I’m going to continue in the vein of talking about earning and saving money from a job. The guides below are what I think are the best personal finance books. My favorite of the bunch is Balance: How to Invest for Health, Wealth, and Happiness.
Author Andrew Hallam mirrors what I think: You don’t need to adhere to a strict budget. You can have what you want. You just can’t have everything. So you need to cut down on spending money on things that don’t align with your values.
Choosing to spend money on the things and experiences and people you value is the difference.
