Summary
The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel changed how millions think
about money. But what's missing for Gen X?
If you're 45-60 and feel financially behind, this episode is for you.
Morgan Housel taught us that behavior beats math. But he didn't give
Gen X — the sandwich generation — a framework to measure progress
when you're juggling aging parents, adult kids, and a retirement
savings gap.
In this episode, R. Lee Vann breaks down what The Psychology of Money
gets right, what it's missing for Gen X, and introduces the Peace
Index — a way to measure your financial peace, not just your net worth.
