14 min - 335 - Stepping Over Quarters to Pick Up Nickels: How to Make Better Decisions by Zooming Out
We humans have a habit of making bad decisions in the name of making good decisions. In our defense, though, these decisions actually seem good…..in a vacuum. However, we don’t live in a vacuum. Often, if we were to take a step back and think about the bigger picture, we would likely make different decisions. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton discusses the importance of taking a broader perspective than just focusing on the cost of something.

14 min - 331 - Make the Right Decision For YOU, Not the “Right” Decision According to the World
Our culture has a lot of opinions. The right time to buy a house. The right time to get into the stock market. The perfect time to buy a car. Everyone has an opinion, and everyone apparently knows what the future will hold. Whether it’s interest rates, house prices, or any number of uncertain variables, everyone seems to know the perfect timing. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton explains why the only “best time” that matters is the best time for YOUR situation. Everything needs to be filtered through the lens of what’s right for our own unique situations. Blindly listening to the prevailing wisdom is a dangerous game to play.

11 min - 330 - “Just Do Better” Isn’t Financial Advice
For many people who have some level of control over their finances, their best advice to people is to “just do better.” Just spend less. Just save more. Just quit being stupid. Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. If it was, far less people would be struggling. Instead, people face numerous roadblocks when it comes to getting right with their money. Instead of guilting them or simply telling them to be better, we can help them identify their roadblocks and find ways to overcome them. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton explores this idea, and what it looks like in practice.
