In this episode of Wealth Para Todos, host Rita-Soledad Fernandez Paulino discusses the common struggle among first-generation wealth builders of opting for cheaper, lower-quality items despite having the means to afford better options.

They introduce the concept of aligned spending and provides a five-step framework to help listeners transition from spending out of fear and scarcity to spending with neutrality and joy.
