▍原文
Whether or not money buys happiness is an age-old question. But it’s something the super-rich are grappling with as never before. As the realm of the mega-wealthy grows ever larger, so too are accompanying issues such as wealth shame and inheritance guilt.
Historically, wealthy families had priests to offer them some spiritual guidance. Today, they see a wealth therapist instead.
Unlike traditional financial advisers, wealth therapists aren’t invested in what people do, or don’t do, with their money. The job of the therapist is to help clients make choices that reflect their values and help to see things through a different prism.
