Do you believe that there is a connection between your level of joy and money?

Today I’m talking with Chris Budd, author of 'The Financial Wellbeing Book' and co-host of the Financial Wellbeing Podcast to discover how our financial habits influence long-term happiness, the set point theory of well-being, and practical advice on becoming more aware spenders.
