About this Event
Mammon or Marriage? How to Maximize Happiness in Life and Love
Most people today think that education, work, and money matter most when it comes to building a meaningful and happy life. But they are wrong. Drawing on the latest in social science and ancient wisdom, University of Virginia Professor Brad Wilcox will unpack a fundamental truth: Family life matters more for happiness than the degree on your wall or the money in your bank account. In fact, nothing predicts men’s and women’s happiness better than a good marriage. Attend this free event as Professor Wilcox shares the five pillars of strong marriages in 21st-century America.
