This week’s solo episode I pick back up with Morgan Housel’s The Art of Spending Money. As I read through it, the book continues to prove how much of our relationship with money is shaped by our upbringing and expectations. I discuss why contentment matters as much as income, why comparison is not only the thief of joy but can be poisonous, and how money buys freedom only when you stop letting others' opinions steer your choices.I also dig into the bigger themes Housel raises around happiness,

In this solo episode, I share highlights from The Art of Spending Money by Morgan Housel.

I also get into how our upbringing, culture, and past struggles influence our every financial decision. One of my favorite quotes from the book is: "Personal finance is more personal than finance."I also discuss why admiration rarely comes from material things, and how

Almost didn't get this solo episode recorded. Been a rough week. But think I might get some relief after seeing a doctor here in Gdańsk. In this ep, I talk about a recent sauna experience—who I met there and why the interaction impacted me. One of them was a 19-year old from Ukraine. So I asked if she had any friends who'd been killed in the war. And what she told me is something I'll always remember. War is hell.
