What Would You Do With $5 Million?
|
Iâve been watching Beast Games. Go ahead. Judge me. As I watched contestants fight for a life-changing prize, I started wondering: What would I do with $5 million? Itâs more money than most people will ever see or earn. To put it in perspective, youâd have to make $125,000 a year (after taxes!) for 40 years to reach that number. So hereâs my question for you: If I handed you $5 million right now, would you know exactly how to use it? Most people think a sudden windfall would solve all their problems. But if you donât already have a clear idea of how youâd use all the money youâll ever earn, whatâs the point of getting it all at once? The hard truth is that more money doesnât create clarity. It just magnifies your existing habits and uncertainties. So, what would you do? Hit reply and let me knowâhow would you spend $5 million? âTyler |

I literally wouldn't have a thriving money coaching practice if it weren't for this apparent law of the universe. This is how lifestyle creep sneaks up on people. You get a raise, a bonus, or a higher-paying job, and without even realizing it, your ânormalâ gets...
Many people think managing money is about self-control. Resisting impulse purchases, sticking to a budget, and having the willpower to say no. But personal finance isnât about willpower. Itâs about decision making. Think of it like a muscle. If youâve never actively decided how to spend your money, if youâve never practiced weighing trade-offs and making intentional choices, then that muscle is weak. And like any weak muscle, it wonât magically get stronger on its own. I see this firsthand...
Last month I sent an email about the small, frequent, forgettable purchases that quietly drain your money. I concluded that the best way to stop the leak was awareness. But since then, I realized I donât actually agree with myself. Awareness is valuable, but knowing where your money went after you spent it isnât the same as stopping the leak in the first place. The real problem isnât that spending is invisible. Itâs that we donât decide before we buy whether a purchase aligns with what we...
