From the bestselling author of The Psychology of Money, The Art of Spending Money teaches how to use money to live a happier, more balanced life. Many of us chase possessions to impress others, save obsessively, or confuse comfort with excess?but rarely focus on what truly brings value. Morgan Housel shows that smart spending isn?t about budgets or hacks; it?s about understanding your relationship with money and making choices that align with your priorities. With insight and warmth, he explores why peace of mind often offers the highest return, why expectations matter more than income, and how self-awareness outweighs spreadsheets. This book guides readers to spend deliberately, appreciate what they have, and focus on what?s truly worth wanting?turning money from a source of stress into a tool for a more fulfilling life.
