Investing and Maslow’s Hierachy of Needs

Maslow's hierarchy of needs is one of the most important concepts. This can be applied to improve your daily life, investing and personal finances.

Abraham Maslow developed Maslow's hierarchy of needs when focusing on positive psychology and was part of the humanistic psychology movement. This was different to Sigmund Freud psychology who focused on people's problems.

Maslow was different as he studied why people were successful and tried to find ways to copy this success.

Maslow's theory is one of the most influential concepts for over 100 years. It is also called Maslow theory of motivation and has been inspirational for many people to be more self motivated to improve their lives
