How to Turn Saving Into Something Automatic | Adam Van Deusen | Growing Money with Sean Trace

from Growing Money with Sean Trace · host Sean Trace

I sat down with Adam Van Deusen from Kitces.com to talk about something we don't discuss enough in personal finance: what "enough" actually means for you. We got into why so many people worry they'll never have enough to retire, even when they're doing the right things, and why comparing yourself to influencers or the next tax bracket is a losing game.We talked about the arrival fallacy, why hitting your number doesn't automatically make you happy, and how to actually give yourself permission to spend money you worked hard to save.
