In episode #44, we deep dive into the term Lifestyle creep. And you may be suffering with it RIGHT NOW. How many times have you said to yourself, "Well once I make more, I'll be able to make more progress on my money goals." And then you finally get the raise or the better paying job and YOU STILL can't seem to make as much progress. Well a lot of the time, that's due to LIFESTYLE CREEP.

We allow ourselves to increase a few expenses because we are making more money but it results in less EXTRA money to put towards our goals….again!

So dive into today's chat and learn how to avoid it or how to reverse it if you are already sucked into lifestyle creep!
