Happy Money
The Science of Happier Spending
Book • 2014
In this book, Elizabeth Dunn and Michael Norton explain how money can buy happiness if spent according to five core principles.
These principles include buying experiences over material goods, making purchases a treat, buying time, paying now and consuming later, and investing in others.
The authors draw on cutting-edge research in behavioral science to show how these principles can be applied by individuals and companies to create happier employees and customers.
They also highlight how companies like Google, Pepsi, and Charmin have implemented these ideas successfully.
