Issue 58

In Issue Fifty-Eight, Kinfolk examines our relationship with money—not as currency or an endgame, but as an emotional force that shapes how we live and who we become. Writer Otegha Uwagba reflects on financial independence and the widening divide between those who inherit wealth and those who don’t, and Hettie O’Brien meets the recipients of extreme intergenerational wealth and finds that privilege doesn’t always bring peace of mind. Meanwhile Elie Hassenfeld of GiveWell explains how his empirical approach to philanthropy measures the real impact of giving, and HTSI editor Jo Ellison offers her perspective on “how to spend it.”

Elsewhere, we offer alternative routes into an abundance mindset: We meet five Scandinavian business leaders reshaping their companies around values beyond profit; our fashion editorial pays homage to the idea that the greatest wealth of all is health; and chef Sophie Wyburd proffers probably the only way to get rich quick—in the kitchen, thanks to her five indulgent new recipes for winter.
