The book that the author wrote "Don't Trust Your Gut : Using Data to Get What You Really Want in Life" ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58490565-don-t-trust-you... ) is well worth a read.

There is also a good podcast episode with an interview by Steven Levitt with the author ( https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/75-self-help-for-data-... )

It might be of interest to HN types because it's essentially using loads of data to see what helps people.

It's weird that this article didn't mention "The Millionaire Next Door" (1998) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Millionaire_Next_Door
