Why the Wealthiest People in the Room Are Often the Most Miserable — And What to Do About It

After 40 years managing money for some of the most successful people on Wall Street, Matt Ludmer came to a conclusion that surprised even him: accumulating more rarely made his clients happier. Motley Fool analyst Rachel Warren sits down with Matt Ludmer — founder of Aligned Wealth Management and author of The Right Mountain — to explore the gap between financial achievement and genuine fulfillment. They dig into the three-pot portfolio strategy Matt developed after managing insurance company money that changed how his clients think about market volatility, why crossing wealth thresholds rarely reduces financial anxiety, and what it actually means to be on the right mountain.
