In this week’s episode, we discuss how to control your lifestyle to find financial freedom. We introduce the concept of lifestyle creep, or lifestyle inflation, and talk about how dangerous and destructive it can be to your financial and overall wellbeing. There is a definite balance between the positive impacts of inflating your lifestyle and over-spending in a way that doesn’t increase your happiness. We dig into where lifestyle inflation comes from and tips for avoiding it.
