1. The New York Times “Well” Blog Launches Monthly Book Club

spoiledThe New York Times has launched a new monthly book club on their health and wellness blog, “Well.”

Gretchen Rubin’s Better Than Before: Mastering the Habits of Our Everyday Lives has been picked as the selection for March. Ron Lieber’s The Opposite of Spoiled: Raising Kids Who Are Grounded, Generous and Smart About Money was chosen as the title to be read in February. Lieber sat for an interview with the “Well” blog.

As a personal finance columnist, Lieber feels that money can be used as a teaching tool. He explains: “What is the opposite of spoiled? I came up with a list of values and character traits — curiosity, patience, thrift, modesty, generosity, perseverance, perspective. You can use money to teach every single one of those things. Rather than thinking that money subverts these values, what if we embraced conversations about money to teach our kids?”
