Financial Intelligence: How to Make Smart, Values-Based Decisions with Your Money and Your Life

Description:

About this item:

Can you envision a healthy financial life but have old, hard to break habits that prevent it from taking root? You are not alone. It turns out our brains are hard-wired to make poor financial and life decisions. Financial Intelligence helps you break the cycle of habitual and emotional decision-making that hard-wiring automatically sparks when faced with emotionally charged events. Beginning with your principles, values, and beliefs, Financial Intelligence offers a concrete guide to help you achieve better results. Doug Lennick provides a simple and clear four-step method, known as the 4Rs, for making wise financial and life decisions based on your core values. When you find yourself in a highly charged event, such as the Dow Jones plummeting, rash decisions often follow like selling out your entire stock portfolio at record lows! Recognizing your automatic mental and physical responses is half the battle toward taking control of the situation. After reflecting on your values and your circumstances (while accounting for your inherent biases), you can reframe a more realistic interpretation of what is happening and what lies ahead. This allows you to respond to a critical situation with an understanding of it and foresight about which current actions will best serve your future goals. Accepting the certainty of uncertainty means you must prepare for the ups and downs of life so when you are thrown a curve ball you are confident you have the foundation in place to act wisely. Financial Intelligence gives you the tools to build this foundation to be able to step back from a tense situation, return to your core values, and transition to an emotional state where decisions are based on thoughtful analysis of what will bring you the greatest long-term success and fulfillment in life.

5.0 out of 5 stars We should all invest with this mindset

M.C. · April 9, 2014

Investing and Financial decisions are hard to perfect. One of the main reasons why we make poor financial decisions is because we don't have a grip on our emotions. Whenever negative financial externalities occur: Stock Market Crash or Job Loss, typically we are not in the most optimal state of mind when we make some of the most important financial decisions. This book helps us evaluate our state of mind and heart to make sure that we are making intellectual financial decisions and not emotional financial decisions. And it trains us to make those optimal decisions by first helping us discover who we and and what we want to accomplish. The largest take away for me was being able to make "Valued" based financial decisions. From now on I will first ask myself before making any financial based decision: Does this decision help or hurt my values? For example: My values are God, Family, My Significant Other, Charity, and Wisdom: I will always ask myself if my financial decisions positively or negatively help these values.

5.0 out of 5 stars GRRREAT read, loaded with info to merge your left and right brain with use of your dollars be they few or many.

Basic focus of of this book is to awaken one to the reality that we part with a buck when we see real return, yet often kid ourselves about that fact.You can't come away from this read without forever understanding that we buy our values. We spend our money based on more then, say, what a product returns, but on how we feel about the way it fits among society.The author gently wakes up readers to realities that are useful to the rest of one's entire life.Claudia Strasbaugh

Great information.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, Meaningful, and Insightful read!

Financial Intelligence is a remarkably thought-provoking read! The theories, methods, research, and knowledge shared throughout the book are applicable in so many ways in everyday life. While financial concepts are not always easy to understand and even more difficult to apply, the authors of this book do an excellent job of articulating how these somewhat confusing concepts can be applied in professional and personal relationships alike. I especially appreciated chapters 5, 9, and 10! Thank you to Doug Lennick, Kathleen Jordan, and all of the others who contributed to the content of this incredible book.
