In fact, the majority of people only have 'a few years' planned out financially in front of them according to research by Morningstar. During MeDirect's second medirectalk for this year, Dr Sarah Newcomb, Director of Behavioural Science at Morn- ingstar addressed the audience on "What Is Financial Wellbe- ing? - The Morningstar view". Newcomb explained how fi- nancial well-being is correlated to the amount of money people have saved up which is direct- ly dependent on the mindset adopted by individuals. She defined financial health as the combination of economic stability and emotional well-be- ing with respect to one's financ- es. She spoke about the four mental factors associated with financial well-being, and how they can impact one's financial and emotional bottom line. The event provided an expert overview of how focusing on financial well-being lets one assert their path to financial se- curity. Newcomb also noticed a correlation on how one en- joys wealth and one's general well-being. Newcomb is an acclaimed writer who has earned men- tions in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today, among other major pub- lications. She has blogged for Investment News and Psychol- ogy Today, and is the author of 'Loaded: Money, psychology and how to get ahead without leaving your values behind'.
