Does Money Make You Mean?

Paul Piff ‘04

University of California, Irvine


We’ll start by viewing Dr. Piff’s TED talk, then move to a discussion of the talk and the issues Dr. Piff raises.  A brief summary of his talk:

It's amazing what a rigged game of Monopoly can reveal. In this entertaining but sobering talk, social psychologist Paul Piff shares his research into how people behave when they feel wealthy. (Hint: badly) But while the problem of inequality is a complex and daunting challenge, there's good news too.
