Money is the root of all evil. Money is the root of all happiness. Money is the root of all servitude. Money is the root of all freedom. 

Money is not inherently good or bad. What matters is how you acquire it and how you use it. 

The Root of All is a weekly newsletter that takes a curious look at personal finance, investing and psychological topics to explore how money shapes our lives — for better and for worse. It is written for people who want make better financial decisions and build a better relationship with that imaginary-but-so-real thing we call money.

It will also feature additional content, including interviews with financial/business writers, curated links to other enlightening articles, a weekly deep thought and more.
