Money = Happiness is a BROKEN MINDSET | ...

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

Today's episode is classic segment from GaryVeeTV. Too many people are burning themselves out and living an unhappy life in the pursuit of money and "success". They think that the external validation of having nice things is what will make them happy, but it doesn't work that way. There is nothing wrong with wanting and buying a nice watch if you are genuinely excited by it, but truthfully most people are not excited by watches and do it to impress the people around them, who most the time they don't even like.

Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
