48: Bored Money Choices

When was the last time you let yourself be bored? Usually, when we feel boredom coming on, we frantically look for something to entertain or occupy us, and oftentimes that involves spending money in an unplanned and impulsive way. Boredom is an emotion within our culture that is greatly misunderstood and so many are using the boredom they feel as a weapon against themselves. The good news is, it doesn't have to be this way because contrary to popular belief, boredom can be the breeding ground for insight, inspiration, and creativity.

This is an episode that will challenge you to think of this common emotion in an entirely new way and in a way that starts to help your bank account rather than hurt it.
