In this episode of Money Insights, Jesse Scroggins takes a deep dive into the psychology of money and the true meaning of financial freedom. Moving beyond traditional financial topics like the economy, markets, estate planning, and tax strategy, Jesse explores the often-overlooked psychological aspects of wealth and what it means to achieve true financial freedom.

Jesse shares a personal story from a recent conversation with his wife that highlights the different perspectives people have on financial freedom. While many equate it to a number or net worth, others see it as the ability to spend time on what matters most. This episode emphasizes the importance of balancing financial security with the freedom to enjoy life. Jesse illustrates this with powerful examples of people who either amass wealth but lack time, or those who have time but worry constantly about running out of money.

Jesse stresses the need to align financial planning with your personal values. Whether you focus too much on building wealth or on maximizing time, both approaches can leave you feeling trapped. He draws on biblical wisdom, quoting Proverbs 21:5, to emphasize that the key to financial freedom lies in creating a deliberate plan that supports your lifestyle goals and ensures security for the future.

Listeners will be encouraged to reflect on their own financial paths, ask critical questions about how they want to spend their time and money, and ensure their financial plans align with these values. Whether you’re a client or not, Jesse urges you to monitor and update your financial plan regularly, making incremental changes to achieve the right balance.

Tune in to this episode for actionable insights on finding harmony between time, money, and financial freedom, and learn how to live your own great story while building a lasting legacy.

“True financial freedom balances both time and money—focusing too much on one can leave you trapped.”
