Redefining the Good Life

from It's Personal Finance Canada · host Christine Conway, Cameron Conway

What is the good life? “To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.” This week we review “The Good Life” by Robert Waldinger & Marc Schultz to see how our health and well-being are dictated by our overall happiness and connections with others. What have these authors learned from The Harvard Study of Adult Development and how do we as Canadians stack up in the most recent World Happiness Report, spoiler alert its worse than last year. Alternate opening for those celebrating easter: Yes we’re redefining the good, good, good life, yes it’s a good, good, good life, mmmhhh yes it is good *cue 10 min droning keyboard/synth solo*.
