14 Habits Keeping You Poor

Growth Mindset Psychology
About this episode

The small but very real problems that hold you back in a big way.


Personal finances feel just that, personal. Yet most of our issues are fundamentally quite predictable and universal based on different mindset patterns and beliefs we pick up.


Money isn't a completely natural tool; it is a human invention that helps us overcome trade and resource accumulation problems. Learning the basics of how to think about money and deal with it allows for us to become a master of our own future.


From Lifestyle inflation to investing strategy or the issue of inaction feeling you have to learn more first


This episode covers the 14 biggest mistakes we make when we think about money.
