One helpful tip per day:)

This comprehensive article introduces Morgan Housel's view on spending:

  1. Your family background and past experiences heavily influences your spending preferences.
  2. Entrapped by spending: Rather than using money to build a life, your life is built around money.
  3. Frugality inertia: a lifetime of good savings habits can’t be transitioned to a spending phase.
  4. An emotional attachment to large purchases, particularly a house.
  5. The joy of spending can diminish as income rises because there’s less struggle, sacrifice, and sweat represented in purchases.
  6. Asking $3 questions when $30,000 questions are all that matter.
  7. Social aspiration spending: Trickle-down consumption patterns from one socioeconomic group to the next.
  8. An underappreciation of the long-term cost of purchases, with too much emphasis on the initial price.
  9. No one is impressed with your possessions as much as you are.
  10. Not knowing what kind of spending will make you happy because you haven’t tried enough new and strange forms of spending.
  11. The social signaling aspect of money, on both things you buy for yourself and charity given to others.
  12. The social hierarchy of spending, positioning you against your peers.
  13. Spending can be a representation of how hard you’ve worked and how much stress went into earning your paycheck.
