Samuel (Skip) Halpern published Wellsprings of Work, subtitled, Surprising Sources of Meaning and Motivation in Work. Samuel writes: “Unlike the extensive literature bemoaning how work brings you down, Wellsprings explores a dozen sources of fulfillment to lift you up. It’s aimed at students and anyone early in a career, as well as Baby Boomers, wondering what their work lives really amounted to and what to do for an encore. Wellsprings uses episodes from my own career in investing and law—dealing with Warren Buffett, Bernie Madoff, the 2008 financial crisis and investing funds for professional athletes (baseball, tennis, and hockey players), Inupiat Eskimos, and hundreds of millions in China—as springboards for exploring purpose and value across a wide range of fields.”
