There’s an 80 percent chance you’re poor. Time poor, that is.  Four out of five reports having too much to do and not enough time to do it.  Happier people, research clearly shows, are ones who value time over money-they’re also healthier and more productive. However, most of us still focus on money because we underestimate the value of our time– declares our guest author on this podcast Ashley Whillans.

In this podcast with Ashley about her new book “Time Smart-How to Reclaim Your Time and Live a Happier Life,” we explore the intersection of money and time and how we make tradeoffs between these valuable resources. In our interview, Ashley speaks about the time traps, including technology and chasing money as well as how to create time-smart routines and build time affluence.

According to Ashley, rethinking time can help both corporations and the government create better policies to help people live a happier life.  She points out that each year, US companies waste 100 billion in employees’ time, and the government imposes 9.78 billion hours of paperwork on its citizens when simple changes could mean significant boots in productivity and the economy.
