10: Mo money mo problems. And not just for OGs.

When you start making a significant amount of income, you're probably going to be able to buy what you want at any given point in time. And that can pose a unique kind of problem.

Earning more actually makes it harder to manage your money in many ways, primarily because you have more and more choice as your income goes up and up. With less inherit restrictions or limitations to face, it becomes increasingly on you to be disciplined enough to focus on what matters.

In this episode, we're walking you what to think about when you reach the point where you no longer have to ask "can I afford this?" The answer is probably yes -- so now your challenge is optimizing where your money goes so you can get maximum happiness and satisfaction from it.

That inspired today's episode of Beyond Finances, which is all about why we don't talk about money, how emotions can get in our way, and what we can do to solve the potential problems that arise when you make highly charged, emotional money moves.

Focus on What You Can Control Jan 04, 2019

Show notes

3: We're tackling the third key variable to financial success: focus. Specifically, we're diving into developing the ability to focus on what you can control. There's a lot of noise and distraction out there, which means finding financial success requires you to zero in on what really matters.
