Manage episode 286209816 series 2886050
The tenth episode of the S.M.I.L.E-ing Boys Podcast that explores 1 of the 8 Pillars of Happiness - Money & Wealth, as it pertains to black boys and the society as a whole is here. In this episode, I explore the age old question ' Does Money Equal happiness?' using research and anecdotal experiences of the young black boys as insightful case studies.
The host, Kay Rufai ( https://www.instagram.com/universoulartist/ ) explores using his happiness research from the top 5 happiest countries ( You can download the report here; https://mailchi.mp/faddab9bb9a1/pdf-delivery ), historical and contemporary data, anecdotes and lived experiences to give a much more nuanced insight into the discussion.
This episode features a audio from young black boys who have participated in the S.M.I.L.E-ing. Boys Project in the last 18 months exploring their thoughts on money and it's impact on their life's purpose.
