All the Money in the World: What the Happiest People Know About Getting and Spending

(Portfolio/Penguin) In this book, Vanderkam argues that we have more money than we think we do and enough to lead the kind of lives we want to. She offers readers ideas on how to better use the resources they have by thinking of money as a tool — a means of acquiring, doing, and taking care of things that bring us joy — rather than as something soulless or as a pile to compare to our neighbors’. Vanderkam is a freelance journalist who writes the “168 Hours” blog for CBS MoneyWatch.
