Mindful Money
Author: Kel Galavan
Publisher: Orpen Press
ISBN: 1786051230
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
Does thinking about money stress you out? Does the concept of ‘having it all’ seemed more like a taunt than an aspiration? Do you want to make your money work for you, rather than the other way around? Has the Covid lockdown forced you to reconsider how you live your life and awakened a desire to develop a better work–life balance? In 2018 Kel Galavan was living and working at breakneck speed, spending endless hours commuting, and felt like she saw more of her children asleep than awake. Realising this wasn’t the life she wanted for herself or her family, she quit her job, and with the family income reduced, embarked on a No-Spend Year in January 2019. Her journey through self-doubt and hard-won life lessons culminated in savings of over €27,000 and changed the life of her family for the better in ways she could never have imagined. Now she wants to bring these lessons to you as we adjust to the post-Covid world and hopefully an understanding of the importance of family and health above the consumer-driven rat-run of life in the twenty-first century. Mindful Money is about building good spending habits and a positive money mindset to build a fulfilling, happy life no matter what the income. Part personal story, part how-to guide, Mindful Money provides deep insight into the emotional journey of Kel’s own experience, along with a background on how money works, and details the seven habits of mindful spending so that anyone can build a life of their own design on their own terms. Mindful Money is more than a journey; it is a transformation in mindset that allows for more money, more freedom and more happiness in all our lives. Kel Galavan is a well-known blogger and Instagram influencer, known as Mrs Smart Money. She has appeared on RTE Radio One, 2FM, Today FM and Virgin Media One.

The Good Rich and What They Cost Us
Author: Robert F. Dalzell
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300188889
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
This timely book holds up for scrutiny a great paradox at the core of the American Dream: a passionate belief in the principle of democracy combined with an equally passionate celebration of the creation of wealth. Americans treasure an open, equal society, yet we also admire those fortunate few who amass riches on a scale that undermines social equality. In today's era of "vulture capitalist" hedge fund managers, internet fortunes, and a growing concern over inequality in American life, should we cling to both parts of the paradox? Can we?/div To understand the problems that vast individual fortunes pose for democratic values, Robert Dalzell turns to American history. He presents an intriguing cast of wealthy individuals from colonial times to the present, including George Washington, one of the richest Americans of his day, the "robber baron" John D. Rockefeller, and Oprah Winfrey, for whom extreme wealth is inextricably tied to social concerns. Dalzell uncovers the sources of contradictory attitudes toward the rich, how the very rich have sought to be perceived as "good rich," and the facts behind the widespread notion that wealth and generosity go hand in hand. In a thoughtful and balanced conclusion, the author explores the cost of our longstanding attitudes toward the rich./divDIV DIV DIVAmong the case studies in America's Good Rich:/divDIVPuritan merchant Robert Keayne/divDIVGeorge Washington/divDIVManufacturers Amos & Abbot Lawrence/divDIVOil magnate John D.
