🎙 This episode has the power to change your life. Once you learn this, you can’t unlearn it and you’ll be seeing it everywhere. In this episode, I talk about opportunity cost and what that means for your finances. But I also talk about how it reflects what your freedom is worth. The financial choices you make have more than just a financial impact. And I’m not just talking about your carbon footprint. 🤔

This episode discusses topics like:

🌟 What opportunity cost means and why it’s a fundamental concept of modern economics;

🌟 How to see the opportunity cost in all your financial (and personal) decisions; and

🌟 What the true cost of retirement is — what is your freedom really worth?
