Why I never cut my spending
|
I've worked with 74 clients since I officially opened my coaching practice 1 year and 7 months ago. That is crazy. Every single client has something in common. Not a single one of them cut back their spending. I never expected them to. And I don't expect you to, either. (Some would say it's impossible to cut spending.) Budgeting has a major branding problem. To most people, budgeting = restriction. Failed plans. Making commitments you cannot keep. Forget that. Boo, that! If I thought budgeting = those things, I would also hate it. But instead, I love it. Because it's not about cutting back. It's about spending more on the things you care about the most. Have a great week! Tyler ❤️ My Favorite Things This Week📚 Book - Normal People by Sally Rooney. If you really love "The Old Man and the Sea" vibes and want to experience them in the context of the hellscape that is modern dating...this book is for you. (I swear I am the worst at book recommendations...) 🎵 Album - "Reverie" by Ben Platt (Apple Music | Spotify | YouTube). I LOVE a good cohesive album, and it's been too long since I've listened to one. I just like how Ben Platt frames the whole album in the context of the Titanic sinking. It's so dramatic and I am HERE for it. 🎬 Movie - Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle (2017). I had a very stressful week, so I can't be watching high brow movies, I'm sorry. This one is really fun! Runner up was a movie called "I.S.S." from 2023. It was just SO bad. My friend and I couldn't get over how the villain was just calmly spreading mustard onto a space tortilla during the dramatic climax. I'm sure I'll get back to making my way through the AFI's top 100 American Films soon! Then I can impress you with my elevated taste. 🎙️ My New Podcast Episodes📊 The One Where I Realize I Have Been Running My Business Without A Marketing Plan - Our special guest Juliana Weiss-Roessler talks in depth about getting the right business strategy, brand strategy, and marketing strategy for your business.

Last week, I asked: What would you do with $5 million? And wow. Your responses were incredible. Some of you mapped out every dollar down to the cent like one reader who planned everything from their exact mortgage payoff amount and finishing the basement to funding a sidewalk for their neighborhood. Others had a simpler plan: Half in Bitcoin, half in VOO. But the most fascinating part? No one said they’d buy a mansion or a fleet of luxury cars. Instead, I noticed four big patterns: Financial...
I’ve 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? It’s more money than most people will ever see or earn. To put it in perspective, you’d have to make $125,000 a year (after taxes!) for 40 years to reach that number. So here’s 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...
Ever check your bank account and think, Wait… where did all my money go? You’re not alone. Most people assume their big expenses—rent, mortgage, car payments—are what define their financial situation. But often, it’s the invisible spending that’s actually draining your money. What I see most often among those I speak with isn’t reckless splurging on luxury items—it’s frequent, forgettable spending at places like Amazon, Target, and Walmart. It’s convenience food delivery. It’s random Venmo...
