“Don’t get me wrong. I am by no means saying that you can’t be both wealthy and happy. But whether you have a seven-figure trust fund or a pile of unpaid bills on your kitchen table, the path to freedom requires that you focus more on your inner life than on your outer financial circumstances.” ~ Brent Kessel from It’s Not About the Money

It’s Not About the Money
is all about pointing us to the spiritual path within our relationship to money--helping us master this part of our life to help us live in integrity with our highest ideals. As Brent wrote the book, he traveled around the world, interviewing such spiritual and investment luminaries as His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Thich Nhat Hanh, Rabbi Harold Kushner, David Whyte, Nobel Prize winner Dr. Harry Markowitz, Vanguard Funds founder John Bogle, Ram Dass, and Joseph Goldstein. (You’ll find many of their quotes in the sidebar throughout this Note.)

In this PhilosophersNote, we’ll take a peak at Brent’s brilliant process of discovering your Core Story that’s running your show and which of his eight archetypes show up in your life--from “The Guardian,” “The Pleasure Seeker,” “The Idealist,” and “The Saver” to “The Star,” “The Innocent,” “The Caretaker,” and “The Empire Builder.” It’s quite remarkable to see which of these archetypes shows up when and how. And, as I said, what you can do about it. So, let’s sit down in quiet meditation as we explore some of Brent’s many Big Ideas and see just what the yogi/financial planner has to say about achieving spiritual and financial abundance!
