What does your scarcity mindset look like? Today Gwen interviews JD Roth live at FinCon! JD started blogging over 20 years ago, and started his personal finance blog in 2005. He explains what growing up poor taught him about money and how he manages his temptations nowadays. You'll love how real his story is. We also chat about... How JD discovered FI Why buying an old house and repairing it is expensive How he controls his spending habits His scarcity mindset and what it means for him Enjoy this chat with JD Roth, and please subscribe to us in iTunes if you enjoyed it! Show notes and links from today's episode JD's blog: Get Rich Slowly Paula Pant's blog: Afford Anything Financial Independence subreddit Key takeaways from our chat with JD Roth 1 - Rent is the ceiling, the mortgage is the floor Both Gwen and JD agree that fixing up an old house can be very expensive and can be a never ending hole in your pocket. After repairing the house, JD then wanted a hot tub and a nice deck, which meant even more expenses he hadn't planned for. So as Gwen says, the good thing about rent is that it stays the same every month and won't go higher (hopefully), whereas a mortgage is the minimum you'll spend, and can easily increase. Keep this in mind next time you plan on buying a house! 2 - If you had a spending problem as a young adult... JD tells us how he grew up poor and had some crazy spending habits when he started earning money. Gwen had the same issue growing up, which explains why she bought so much 'stuff' once she had money. This is the scarcity mindset that a lot of people who grow up poor deal with. JD explains it as some kind of 'FOMO' (Fear Of Missing Out); he's scared that he might need the thing in the future, so he buys it just in case. Gwen describes it as a big fear of being poor again. After quitting her job, the lack of income caused some stress and worry as it brought her back to her 'dark days' of poverty. This goes to show how your money situation at a young age can deeply affect how you deal with money as an adult. 3 - How to avoid temptation JD loves spending money on comics and videogames, and so has to control himself to make sure he doesn't overspend. He does this through avoidance. To make sure he isn't tempted, he simply stays away from comic book stores and videogames - he doesn't even check the subreddit anymore! By managing the triggers and reducing exposure, JD is able to control better his spending. Go JD! Questions? Like or dislike? Leave us a comment! Want to support the podcast?

Snow globes are magical anyway. But what if you could shake one and have it play a 360-degree video? That's exactly what award-winning San Francisco artist, inventor and educator JD Beltran has done, with her current project: Cinema Snowglobes. Working in collaboration with designer/inventor Scott Minneman, JD has created snow globes which play a 360-degree video when shaken! JD and Scott specialize in cutting-edge interactive art, combining talent and vision with sensors, screens and microchips. JD's digital public-art portfolio includes "The Secrets Series" and "The Magic Storytelling Table", which has been exhibited all over the world. In 2012, JD and Scott came up with the concept for Cinema Snowglobes. Crafting their first prototypes at The Workshop Residence, they developed their snow globes over the next few years. Cinema Snowglobes debuted at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2013. In 2014, they won the "New Technology Art Award", as one of the twenty best technology-based works of art in the world, according to The Cinema Snowglobe webpage. At CES® 2018, in Las Vegas, Cinema Snowglobes won a CES® Innovation Award in the Portable Media Category. (They also garnered lots of oohs and aahs as JD and Scott introduced them to attendees, in preparation for an upcoming crowdfunding campaign!) JD talked about her background, shared the story of creating The Cinema Snowglobe and offered resources and advice for fellow creative inventors. On this edition of Over Coffee® you'll hear: How JD first became interested in combining art and technology to create her art; A story of an early snowglobe project JD created, prior to envisioning Cinema Snowglobes; How JD and her partner and husband, Scott Minneman, first decided to create Cinema Snowglobes; What the process was like, creating their first batch of Cinema Snowglobes; Some of the creative challenges involved in their first production run; What you'll experience, when you pick up two of the most popular Cinema Snowglobes; A creative mistake JD and Scott made, while making their first snow globes, that served as a lesson; A funny story about an "oops" moment they had at The Workshop Residence (it's not one anyone could have seen coming!); What JD recommends to her students, when she teaches them how to create interactive art; Two resources she recommends, for fellow makers and artists; A timeline on Cinema Snowglobes, including a forthcoming new feature: the ability to upload your own content!
