The Human Side of Money: What's Enough?

The Human Side of Money: What's Enough?

This week, I sat down with Brian Portnoy, founder of Shaping Wealth and author of The Geometry of Wealth.

Brian’s big idea? Wealth isn’t about more. It’s about enough. We discussed,

  • The human side of money.

  • What “funded contentment” really looks like in everyday life.

  • Why advisors should be guides to meaning, not just portfolio managers.

  • And how parents can teach kids about money without passing along stress.

Here’s the kicker: Brian believes that the most important financial decision isn’t “What should I invest in?” but “What do I want my money to do for me?”

Advisors, parents, investors - anyone seeking to rethink their relationship with money will find our conversation of value. Tune in to the latest episode of Bangers Only today.
