  • Summary

  • Why is enough never enough? How do I know when you've made enough money, or when making money becomes too much of a concern, and you should be satisfied with what you've got? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3zBDjmeNTA Joining us to discuss this abundance paradox is a long-time friend of The Money Advantage, Rabbi Daniel Lapin. Author of Thou Shall Prosper, Business Secrets from the Bible, and The Holistic You, among other works, Rabbi Lapin is an international speaker and TV host who shares the relevancy of ancient Jewish wisdom for helping us navigate modern times and answer life's most pressing questions. Join us for a captivating discussion with Rabbi Daniel Lappin, who returns for an eighth appearance to unravel the perennial dilemma of why is enough never enough in terms of wealth and work. Listen in as we tackle the intricate balance of ambition and contentment, drawing upon Rabbi Lappin's wisdom and personal anecdotes. This dialogue is designed to guide you through the challenges of defining success and deciding when it's time to refocus your energy away from financial gain and toward the other facets of life that matter most. Discover the art of harmonizing the conflicting truths that shape our lives, as we ponder balancing professional aspirations with personal well-being. Our conversation with Rabbi Lappin illuminates the importance of relationships, health, and embracing a philosophy of service over retirement.

In this episode, we also tackle the scarcity versus abundance mindset, sharing insights on how our beliefs influence our business outcomes and life choices. Rabbi Lappin provides thought-provoking perspectives on retirement norms, the role of marketing in success, and the impact of social circles on our decisions. To round out our expansive conversation, we discuss the importance of balance across the five Fs: family, finances, friendships, faith, and fitness, and we emphasize the crucial role of effective communication in our lives. Tune in for these transformative ideas and more, as we aim to equip you with the tools to lead a more fulfilling, purpose-driven life.

When asked about how much money is “enough,” Rabbi Lapin told us an interesting story about his daughter instead. He and his wife homeschooled their daughter for much of her life, until she decided to go into the school system. His daughter found school to be fairly easy, and getting As were no issue for her in her first semester. In her next semester, however, she started to get some Bs, and the semester after that some Cs sprinkled in. While the Rabbi and his wife were not overly concerned with grades, they did ask her about it. And his daughter answered that when she got As, she was spending too much time focused only on homework. When she got Bs, she had time for other interests and pursuits. And Cs reminded her that she wasn’t putting enough time into school. So she used her grades as a gauge in a very interesting way, outside of the typical way of thinking. For her, it was all about balancing priorities. He likens this story to the question of “enough money,” because it’s something everyone will grapple with. Is there a point at which you can say you’re doing well enough with money that you stop pursuing it? [06:07] “This is actually a very difficult question. It’s not a difficult question to answer, but it’s a difficult question to answer in a way that doesn’t indict me.” Where Are You Investing? Money is of course important.
