The integration of psychology concepts with
economics is increasingly essential to understand human behavior associated
with money . This is because our financial decisions are often related to
emotional aspects and often ignore rationality, as the North American Richard
H. Thaler, winner of the Nobel Prize in
Economics in 2017, has already pointed out.
A reference in the area of behavioral economics,
Thaler investigates how individual decisions and market trends are impacted by
bounded rationality, social preferences and lack of self-control, even stating
that “to make a good economy, you must keep in mind that people are human” .
In this way, a financial planning that
really works should not be just the analysis of numbers, the budget, the
amounts that enter and leave your bank account. While relevant, the numbers are
cold. Therefore, it is necessary, first of all, to understand the person who
produces these numbers, to understand their behavior in relation to money.
We understand that each human being is unique, and
we do not agree with the categorization of people into closed standards that we
are used to seeing, such as the investor profile test model, with only three
definitions: conservative, moderate and aggressive. Or the consumption profiles
that bring the two extremes: consumerist and tight-fisted. We believe that the
solution does not involve categorizing people, it goes far beyond a test.
In addition, current financial plans present the
concepts of financial freedom, financial independence and financial
intelligence. We want to bring a new concept, truly inspired by people's lives
and their behavior, which is Financial Happiness . Such a conception seeks to
present money as an ally for the realization of your dreams, a means for you to
achieve your happiness.
What do you think of this new concept that brings
money as a means and not an end to your happiness? Have you ever thought about
this relationship between money and happiness? Keep accompanying us to discover
the path to Financial Happiness and, if you want more details, get in touch
with John Labunski!
