Do you ever wonder where all your money is going even though you make good money?
In this episode of From Middle Class to Millions, I’m sharing a real-life conversation that reminded me how easy it is to get swept up in lifestyle spending, even for people with no debt and good financial habits. From YouTube Premium to cookware subscriptions to Apple gadgets, it’s clear: the marketers are winning unless you have a plan.
We’ll talk about:
The difference between intentional spending and emotional spending
How to shift from being a consumer to being an investor
Why investing first is your best protection against lifestyle creep
How I decide what’s worth the splurge and what’s not
The quiet power of automated investing and asset ownership
If you’ve ever felt like your money disappears faster than you can track it, or you’re investing what’s left over instead of paying yourself first, this episode will help you realign your money with your values.
