Weekly Video: Buy Some Happiness.

As I mentioned a few days ago, I’m going to start posting the videos for the 2010 Happiness Challenge separately, as their own posts, so look for the new video every Tuesday. In the past, I’ve been cramming too much material into the posts that included the videos.

For those of you following the 2010 Happiness Project Challenge, to make 2010 a happier year — or even if you’re not officially doing the challenge — this month’s focus is Money.

The relationship between money and happiness is one of the most complicated and emotionally charged subjects within the larger issue of happiness. I really couldn’t do justice to its complexities in such a short video. (For a more nuanced discussion, read Chapter Seven in the book!)

This week’s resolution is to Buy some happiness.
