Footing the Bill

We examine the social norms around paying for things for others. From gifts to obligations, how we spend our money speaks to our culture, our values, and how we may or may not be afraid of judgment from others.

Topics covered:
-Spending on milestones for our friends: weddings, showers, bachelorette parties, gifts
-Sex and The City, A Woman’s Right to Shoes
-Wedding one-upmanship & social media
-Why we follow social norms, even when it doesn’t align with our self interest
-Money norms when it comes to dating and splitting finances as a couple, in the US vs Europe
-The history of tipping, tipping culture today, and tipflation
