You ever feel like rich people know something you don't? Apparently, my producer does, because he searched TikTok for “what rich people know.” And I guess he liked what he saw, because now he'smaking me react to what he found. So, let's get to it!    Next Steps: •

Before you're ready to make more money, you must master the money you currently have, and I will die on this hill. Here's the truth many people don't want to hear: a lot of us convince ourselves we need more income when, in reality, we need to control our spending habits first. It's either an income problem (you truly don't make enough to cover basic needs) or a behavioral problem (you spend too much, leading you to believe you don't make enough). And here's why this distinction matters: if you have a behavioral spending problem and don't fix it before earning more, those bad habits will scale with your income. You'll just overspend at a higher level. In this episode, we're focusing on the behavioral side of money management. I'm sharing 6 strategic ways to maximize every dollar you currently earn through better budgeting, intentional spending, and financial systems that work on autopilot. Once you've given every dollar a purpose and you're consistently sticking to your budget, you'll be ready to bring more money into the picture and reach your financial goals faster, without the cycle of earning more and spending more.   Here's What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to diagnose if you have an income problem vs. a spending problem Building a goal-aligned budget that makes every dollar intentional The difference between high-impact and low-impact spending decisions Setting up automated financial systems to remove reliance on willpower When to invest in financial education or coaching for better results Why financial literacy is the foundation of wealth building   The Foundation of Wealth: You can't out-earn bad spending habits. This episode gives you the framework to get intentional with your current income, break the cycle of overspending, and build a solid foundation before scaling up your earnings.   Here's a Glance at This Episode: [01:57] Goal-Aligned Budgeting: Creating a budget system that intentionally leverages your current income.

Today, I'm at Disney Springs near Orlando, Florida, asking unsuspecting tourists potentially uncomfortable questions about their money. Let's do this! Next Steps: •

After decades of saving/investing, it's hard to immediately flip a switch and go into spending mode. Spending is a skill that you should develop on your way to FI, so that you're better at it when the time comes to really do it. Here's what worked for me over the last few years! Highlights How to reframe expenses and recalibrate how you value money (e.g. College Calculation, 0.01% Rule, etc.) Why you should expect inefficiencies/waste as your net worth grows The benefits of splurge accounts and forced annual-spending targets Balancing the idea that "everything is free" with the benefits of incremental improvements The importance of prioritizing "now" over "the future", while still spending/saving for both How to give more while increasing the personal benefits of that giving
