SHOW INTRODUCTION:

If you’ve ever wanted more savings in your life, and to increase your happiness dividend then do we have the Mindful Money show for you!

Today I’ll be talking with Jonathan K DeYoe, a financial adviser for over 20 years, and a longtime Buddhist. He’s also the author of a brilliant book I wish I could have read at least 20 years ago, Mindful Money: Simple Practices for Reaching Your Financial Goals and Increasing Your Happiness Dividend.

And that’s just what I want to talk with him about today, about simple practices for reaching your financial goals, and increasing your happiness dividend.

That plus we’ll talk about burger barns and humanities majors, a bluebird of unhappiness, holding coca-cola forever, the benefits of boring plain vanilla, why growing money’s like growing vegetables especially when returning from Greece, going to the mall in South Dakota, 600 dollar Canon cameras, and how in the world your mom intentionally raised a financial planner!
