Don’t spend less. Just spend smarter. These tips will give you easy-to-implement ways to create wiggle room in your budget so you can enjoy more choice over how you use your money.
Conversations on budgeting and saving money don’t have to translate to “here’s what you have to give up.”
We want to enjoy life now AND plan responsibly for tomorrow, and in this episode, we talk through 3 (stupidly simple) ideas for actually making that possible to do.
We cover:
- Easy, no-effort ways to spend less on things you’re buying anyway
- A framework for recreating your favorite experiences at lower costs
- Why you should be proactive with controlling your cash flow and spending — and it’s not just for the sake of spending less or doing what you think you should do to be better with money
We also discuss how your time and money are the same: with each, you have certain obligations and responsibilities you must maintain (like spending time going to work, or using money to contribute to savings) — but you also have a certain amount of time and a certain amount of money that you get to choose how you use it.
It’s your choices here that will make or break your journey to success with your finances and your life in general — and we discuss the most important thing you can do to make sure you stay on the right track.
These tips provide easy-to-implement ways to create wiggle room in your budget so you can enjoy more choice over how you use your money — and so you can get more of what you REALLY want.
