Die with Zero

Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life

Bill Perkins · 2020

Bill Perkins makes a provocative case: aim to spend your wealth on rich experiences while you can enjoy them, rather than dying with a large unspent balance. Blending finance with life philosophy, he argues that money is a tool for buying memorable experiences, and that timing matters, since health and energy fade. He offers rules for matching spending to life stages and giving to children and charity earlier. A bracing rethink of saving, work, and what money is actually for.

It helped me realise that money is only as valuable as the life experiences you buy with it. Spend your life obsessing about your bank balance, and you've missed the point.
