In this episode, we flip the “lottery tax” trope on its head. No, we didn’t win Powerball (unless you count $6 and a gas station coffee). But by treating the lottery as a game for our values, we got crystal clear on what mattered most—and that’s how we built our plan for early retirement.

💡 Takeaways from this episode:

• Why “lottery talk” is actually a powerful tool for aligning money with values.
• How dreaming big (designer wardrobes, Audis, Palm Springs) led us to focus on what we really want—security, real estate, business growth, giving back.
• How to use fantasy conversations to get your partner on the same money page.
• Why clarity kills hedonic treadmill spending—and gets you closer to early retirement.
• The secret: those “lottery dreams” are often more accessible today than you think.
