Rick Kahler unpacks a recent article in The Jerusalem Post that mistakenly equated financial well-being with financial independence, highlighting why the two are not the same. Drawing on research and his experience in financial therapy, he explains how financial wellness is about more than income or net worth—it’s about meeting obligations, feeling secure, and having choices. Just as importantly, he distinguishes between financial well-being and emotional well-being, showing why confusing the two can undermine both. Rick’s insights offer a clear reminder that true wellness requires attention to both the numbers and the emotions behind them.
