128) Money with Katie - Spending, Investing & Inflation

Today’s conversation is with Katie Gatti, also known as Money with Katie. Katie runs the blog Money with Katie and has been a personal finance consultant since 2018, working with hundreds of people one-on-one from all different financial backgrounds. She's on a mission to teach everyone the simple math behind financial independence – and that mastering your money can be fun. Expect to leader when and how Katie first discovered financial independence, her role models, and the early actions she took. We explore how do you find balance in your long term financial plan, including considerations about saving versus investing, your time, relationships, and what you do for work to earn your money. Katie shares her thoughts on investing in large cap funds like the S&P500, how lifestyle creep can derail your financial plans, and we discuss what on earth has been going on in the market recently as well as the rising inflation rate. This episode was so much fun to record and Katie is a real master of her craft with an incredible blog and podcast. As ever with conversations like this, it should not be construed as financial advice for your personal circumstances.
