Unlocking Multiple Forms of Wealth

28,060 views
Much of today's society is designed through the lens of financial capital, but is our world richer for it? Nipun Mehta uses that question as a springboard to make a compelling case for alternative forms of capital that are often overlooked -- like time, community and attention. Drawing on his personal journey with ServiceSpace, as well as fascinating research and real-world examples, this inspiring talk invites listeners to consider a catalytic question: what forms of capital do you care about?

I have watched this video multiple times. As I'm in the process of creating an organisation with a group of my friends, I realised that 1. The abundance of wealth that 2. It will get wasted if I do not use it. Time to act - I'm on a mission to create postive / inspiring content and create a world of hope/possibilities.

Recognizing that wealth exists in multiple forms expands our perspective, while focusing solely on financial capital limits it.

The video is so educative. It teaches me a lot about the different wealth we have to to help people thrive in this difficult time.
Madhuri
It resonates with my idea of all things that truly matter. And the true meaning of abundance.
Adish
It was an eye opener. It made me realise what really matters to me.

This video conveys a value for all the wealth we are abundantly given and how to invest it wisely. Thank you Nipun. I see a comment talking about 'these uncertain times' we are in. The pandemic has mad things feel much more uncertain, but in reality I believe times have never been certain really. All we have is now, and giving al our capital to collecting money seems a painful way to use our heads, hearts and hands.

Wow this is absolutely inspiring and especially in these uncertain times where all conventional systems have nearly come to a stand still and the question
what’s the life we’ve been living?
We have forgotten the basic of human values in the chase to live honourable ? lives ?
There is a place for everything and when one thing dominates, it’s surely abnormal and bound to fall one day.
This message in the video is so important for us to awaken to, to the various diverse forms of capital and honour them amidst us and share the joy together

I am deeply moved, touched and inspired. I too have been deep in this inquiry of other forms of capital. Specifically the role of compassion and our relationship with money. I am interested in bringing more awareness to Mindful spending, earning and giving. And deeply evaluating our wants, needs, and desires. I am also interested in understanding how parents can role model a holistic relationship with money to their children.
Katian
Loved it. Thanks for sharing. I will do the same and keep raising my awareness on this subject

Nipun's sincerity as he shares the experiences of his friends in using their Capital in such beautiful and unique ways was really inspiring to me. I have to listen to this and all his videos over and over to let the messages sink in.
Raji
very inspiring as I have been engaged with this question for last few years and my reflections about the inequities existing in the world. The Unesco's model of the four pillars of education for Human Development draws attention to -Learning to know, Learning to do, Learning to be, Learning to live together! Unfortunately the modern education system that tunes in with preparing individuals earn money, in a competative society-focussing only on the first 2 and pays very little attention to the latter 2 facets...which are integral elements of Human development! These forms of capital are closely connected to Human Development

This video inspired me several months ago and continues to inspire me to discover wealth in so many simple things/acts which surround me all the time. Thank you for this insight :)
