Author, international thought leader, and life-planning pioneer George Kinder has been at the forefront of the financial services industry for more than 35 years, spearheading a movement to put the lives that clients desire to live at the center of their financial plans. George has trained thousands of professionals globally in the field of financial life planning. He founded the Kinder Institute of Life Planning in 2003. His three books on money, The Seven Stages of Money Maturity, Lighting the Torch, and Life Planning for You, are considered foundational and essential works in the field of financial life planning. George's client-centered and values-driven money-management philosophies challenge many assumptions in economics, our approaches to democracy. A graduate of Harvard University, George earned the Bronze Medal in Massachusetts on the National Uniform Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam in 1975. In 1994, he co-founded "The Nazrudin Project," an influential think tank of national financial advisers dedicated to exploring the human and spiritual aspects of money and personal finance. In 2000, Investment Advisor Magazine awarded him its Portfolio Management Award, which is given to those who have "contributed significantly to the art and science of portfolio management." George's thought leadership extends beyond finance as reflected in his books on mindfulness and civilization. He has taught mindfulness for 35 years, now to a global community. George Kinder invites readers to imagine a thousand generations have passed and humanity has at last accomplished a Golden Civilization. What does it look like? Who are we there? Of all our systems and structures currently in place which of them got us there? And which of them were irretrievably heading in the wrong direction? He challenges readers to immediately abandon habits, structures, and systems that won't take us to a Golden Civilization and adopt those that will. In his new book, A Golden Civilization and a Map of Mindfulness, Kinder draws on 50 years as a mindfulness practitioner and his experience training financial advisors globally to challenge the basic concepts of economics, our understanding of democracy, of space-time, and our own hearts. His objective is to bring greater levels of freedom everywhere. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing. Seller Inventory # 86309
