Dr. Thomas Mathar - Financial Wellness vs. Financial Independence: How to Achieve Both for a Secure Future
from Standard Deviations with Dr. Daniel Crosby · host Dr. Daniel Crosby, Dr. Thomas Mathar
Tune in to hear: How might financial planning conversations need to change in light of the new longevity many will experience? How will the “100 year life” affect the 3 life stages (education, work and retirement) that used to be more clearly delineated? How might we be able to give more salience and power to our mental image of a future self? What does Dr. Mathar’s research around this topic suggest? What are the differences between financial wellbeing and financial independence? If financial independence is all about a dollar value, how does financial wellbeing look different? Are there any heuristics Dr. Mathar can offer about following the money vs. following your dreams?
