The 5 Types of Wealth (podcast)

A conversation with Sahil Bloom

Today on Two Percent, Michael speaks with Sahil Bloom, the author of The 5 Types of Wealth: A Transformative Guide to Design Your Dream Life.

The 5 Types of Wealth is a fantastic and well-researched work that helps us discover what matters.

Sahil writes, “Throughout your life, you’ve been slowly indoctrinated to believe that money is the only type of wealth. In reality, your wealthy life may involve money, but in the end, it will be defined by everything else.”

Sahil breaks down wealth into five types: Time, social, mental, physical, and financial.

Michael and Sahil cover:
