Description: Longtime personal finance columnist for The Wall Street Journal, Jonathan Clements, provides readers with a coherent way to think about their finances, so they worry less about money, make smarter financial choices and squeeze more happiness out of the dollars that they have.  How to Think About Money is built around five key ideas: money can buy happiness, but we need to spend with great care; most of us will enjoy an extraordinarily long life--and that has profound financial implications; we are hardwired for financial failure, so sensible money management takes great mental strength; we need to bring order to our financial life by focusing on our paycheck, or lack thereof; if we want to add to our wealth, we should strive to minimize subtractions.--
