The Broke Generation

FRIDAY FAVES: mindless spending versus investing in yourself


Listen Later

When are we buying to fix ourselves, and when are we "investing in ourselves"? In this solo episode I dive into the sometimes-dangerous advice I see on social media about "investing in yourself" (which is basically just fixing yourself and/or emotional spending in disguise), and unpack the differences between healthy investments in yourself and toxic pseudo investments in yourself. Then, we move onto a model you can use to explore 7 ways you can invest in yourself in a meaningful way, and side step that toxic side of self-investment.
