Best selling author David Wann presents 17 forms of “real wealth” that can eradicate affluenza, a pandemic he helped diagnose in the book, Affluenza: The All-Consuming Epidemic. “When we change a few key priorities and values, such as what we mean by the word “success,” many of our material wants will cease to be obsessions,” says Wann. “Instead of fidgety, addictive consumption, our lives can be filled with the real wealth of sanity, health, hope, caring, connection, participation, and purpose.”


Sounds too good to be true? Wann’s new book, Simple Prosperity , Finding Real Wealth in a Sustainable Lifestyle www. davewann .com , draws on the latest research to document how social connections, good health, contact with nature, stimulating work, leisure time, great neighborhoods, and other forms of real wealth can build up our immunity to affluenza. “As a result, we become less vulnerable to the borrow-and-spend mentality that’s backed the U.S. economy into a corner,” says Wann. “By reevaluating many aspects of daily life, including what we eat, where we live, and what we buy, we’re starting to imagine what a joyfully moderate, efficient, compassionate lifestyle will look like. The good news is that curing the pandemic of over-consumption at both the personal and cultural scale is not about giving up the good life but getting it back.”

David Wann is president of the non-profit Sustainable Futures Society, a board member of the Cohousing Association of the U.S., and a fellow of the Simplicity Forum, an association of writers and thinkers on the topic of sensible, sustainable lifestyles. Wann has received various lifetime achievement awards for his work on sustainability. He’s been an passionate gardener for 25 years and coordinates the community garden in the neighborhood he helped design – Harmony Village in Golden, Colorado. He’s written nine books and produced many award-winning TV programs and videos on sustainable design and sustainable lifestyles.
