You could see a
shift happening
at HBS. Money
used to be number one
in the job search. When
you make a ton of money,
you want more of it.
Ironic thing. You start to
forget what the drivers of
happiness are and what
things are really important.
A lot of people on campus
see money diff erently now.
They think, ‘What’s the
minimum I need to have,
and what else drives my
life?’ instead of ‘What’s the
place where I can get the
maximum of both?’”

I accessed this HBR article in my Management class, because my professor was/is a huge fan of Clay Christensen, better known for writing The Innovator's Dilemma. It's a fantastic read and definitely something that people deciding about whether or not to follow the yellow brick road to the Emerald City of Financial Independence should read.

It's about a solid decision framework that minimizes the regrets you have later in life. Read the book if you liked this article. :)
