Listen "Ep. 25 - Does Money Control me?"
Episode Synopsis
Oh money. The thing that buys us what we want and what we need. The thing that seems to do everything for us. People love to say, “money can’t buy happiness”—yet most of us can’t even imagine happiness without it somehow being involved. Sometimes, having money feels just as essential as food and water. Maybe even more. But what is it, really?In this episode, I get a little help from one of modern philosophy’s favorite chaotic uncles, Slavoj Žižek, as I dig into what money truly is, what it does to us, and whether life without it is even possible.And ask yourself this: do you actually believe you could be happy without money? Or is that just a story we tell ourselves so we never have to find out?
