I guess time will tell, but I have a feeling this will be a life transforming book for me along the lines of “Your Money or Your Life” by Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin which played a major role in helping me get a handle on money and make a living as an artist.Chris and Adam are particularly good at presenting information to help shift narratives to ones that are more useful. Right now my major take away from “Prosper!” is presenting and clarifying the idea of prosperity being a function of 8 forms of capital. Our standard narrative would suggest that prosperity can be found with just lots of money and perhaps material goods. I think that most of us know that while money and material goods are an element of prosperity there is more to it if you really want a fulfilling life.Their 8 forms of capital are:Financial capitalLiving capitalMaterial capitalKnowledge capitalEmotional capitalSocial capitalCultural capitalTime capital“Your Money or Your Life” really brings forth the interrelations between financial capital, time capital, and material capital, honestly in a better way than “Prosper!” does. However, it really only hinted at the other forms of capital which Chris and Adam’s book make explicit. Thus I’m seeing “Prosper!” as a sort of companion book to “Your Money or Your Life” in helping to guide one to achieving a fulfilling life. They explain each of the forms and offer suggestions for actionable steps to deepen ones resources in each of them. I find that in many ways I have already been pursuing these various types of capital, but having this clear framework or narrative is really helping me to think about and more directly pursue them.
