Today, I’m talking to Dr. Sarah Fallaw. Sarah is the founder and president of DataPoints, where she provides her clients with technologically enabled financial psychology tools to enhance wealth building.

If you’ve been following the podcast, you’ve likely seen Sarah’s writing and research in our Weekend Reading for Retirees series. Her work has been featured in the Journal of Financial Planning, Financial Planning Review, and Industrial and Organizational Psychology. 

In her book, The Next Millionaire Next Door, she updates her father’s classic text (and one of my dad’s favorite books) to answer the question: what does it take to be the Millionaire Next Door today? 

In our conversation, Sarah shares the biggest lessons she took away from her father, Dr. Thomas J. Stanley. We explore the traits that set people up to succeed in life and business, what it means to be wealthy in this modern era, and the common behaviors we see in clients of all ages when making effective financial decisions.
