7. The Battle Between Your Brain and Your Bank Account


Listen Later

Ready to understand how your brain affects your money choices? Well You're in luck because that's what this episode is all about.

Did you know that your brain has two areas that play a big role in how you spend, save, and invest? Yeah, it's true!

First up is the primitive brain, also called the reptilian brain. This part of your brain is all about survival instincts, like seeking pleasure, avoiding pain, and conserving energy. And sometimes, those primal urges can lead you to make some not-so-great money decisions.

On the flip side, we've got the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for your decision-making skills, impulse control, and long-term planning. This part of your brain helps you make informed and logical financial choices that will benefit you in the long run.

By understanding how these two brain areas work together (or against each other), you can get a better handle on why you might be making certain money decisions. And armed with that knowledge, you can start to make smarter choices with your finances.

So whether you're trying to save up for a big purchase, pay off debt, or invest in your future, tuning into this episode is a must. We'll help you understand your brain and your money, so you can make the most of both.
