About this episode

The great debate: are you a spender or a saver?

This question gets thrown around quite often, and it’s easy to lump yourself into a specific camp without really thinking about the drivers behind your behaviour. Most of us have a bit of both in us, and we’d argue that’s a good thing.

This episode is going to focus on those that find themselves on the spending side of the debate, and hopefully provide you with some strategies to bring a bit more balance to your financial life.

In this episode, Kate & Owen unpack the four main reasons why we spend money, with the goal of learning to spend your money with more intention.

TLDR: You’re going to spend money for many different reasons and that’s a big part of your financial life. But where you can, try to articulate why you are spending the money.
