"Shiny Objects: Do Possessions Have Anything To Do With Happiness?"

Guest: Dr. James Roberts

Listen as Dr. James a. Roberts shares with Allen his current studies at Baylor University that focus on the

impact our love of material possessions has on our happiness. His new book, "Shiny Objects: Why we spend

money we don't have in search of happiness we can't buy", is full of interesting statistics, funny stories,

careful research, and packs a powerful message that happiness can still be attained in a culture awash in

material possession love.
