Morgan Housel’s Money Mindset: Live a High-End Toyota Life, Not a Entry-Level BMW One Next Level Agents: The Kevin & Fred Show - Interviews with the best and brightest minds in the real estate industry
-
- Entrepreneurship
Human beings are an aspiration and progress-based species, and money is the currency of this game. We’re always going to chase growth and success, and that comes with a lot of social debt and expectations, but if we’re not careful, that will get us in big trouble. We might find ourselves making decisions based on what impresses others, not what makes our lives better, and that’s the wrong way to go about things.
Many people would rather buy an entry level BMW, for the bragging rights, not the driving experience. The better decision is to aim for the high-end Toyota - it’s not too expensive or flashy, but it’s filled with things that actually enhance your life.
We can apply this mindset to homes, careers, and vacations. If we learn not to play the expectations game, we can be happier and we can also have a better relationship with money.
Today, we’re joined by the bestselling author of The Psychology of Money and Same As Ever, Morgan Housel. He shares money mindsets that get us in trouble and how to shift away from them.
Books Mentioned
No Ordinary Time: Franklin & Eleanor Roosevelt: The Home Front in World War II
April 1865: The Month That Saved America Book by Jay Winik
1944: FDR and the Year That Changed History by Jay Winik
