Listener Questions: Am I Being Overly Money Vigilant to a fault?

Listener Rebecca has transformed from being an impulsive spender to now hyper-fixating on saving and investing. In today's episode, we discuss the potential struggles with money vigilance and how being close to the financial world can make personal financial decisions harder. We also explore the decision-making process for buying a car while saving for a house and retirement. We emphasize the importance of striking a balance between immediate desires and long-term financial goals, and ensuring all financial bases are covered before making any big-ticket purchases. Lastly, we discuss the importance of maintaining a healthy balance when it comes to financial management and the cautionary tale of Ebenezer Scrooge as an extreme example of money vigilance gone wrong. Join us as we navigate the complexities of money management for ADHD individuals and learn how to find that perfect balance between saving and spending.For more information, visit the show notes at https://www.adhdmoneytalk.com/s1e56Head over to our YouTube channel for the full experience on future episodes.Learn more about ADHD-friendly financial coaching Follow me on YouTubeSubscribe to the newsletter
