• Author, Money and Love: An Intelligent Roadmap for Life's Biggest Decisions

  • Jan 2023 - Present

  For over four decades, pioneering labor economist Myra Strober taught a course at Stanford's Graduate School of Business called Work & Family; the course helped me and thousands of other students make more informed, intentional decisions about our careers and personal lives. Myra and I teamed up to write this book to empower everyone to make better decisions when money and love are involved. Should I move in with this person? Should I quit my job? When is the “right time” to have another child? All these life-altering questions at the juncture of money and love can be overwhelming. Often, we answer them either by staying overly rational or by listening only to our – at times fickle – hearts. Hardly ever, when faced with daunting questions, do we have the keys to combine both head and heart in a balanced and fulfilling way. Whereas most decision-making guides focus only on one or the other, Money and Love shows us how to consider them jointly using the original, step-by-step 5Cs method: Clarify; Communicate; Choices; Check-in; and Consequences.
