What Your Time Is Actually Worth (Paula Pant)

Paula Pant grew up watching her mother spend six hours going between four different grocery stores, coupons sorted by location, all to save a few dollars on milk and bread. Frugality wasn't a choice in the Pant household — it was the operating system. It took years for her to realize that nobody had ever asked what all that time was actually worth. Host of the popular podcast Afford Anything, Paula talks with Chris Hill about that early lesson and how she unlearned it, as well as:- How getting rejected by Taco Bell at 15 led to a career in journalism (eventually)- Why frugality can be its own trap- What freelancing taught her about the real relationship between time and money- Her framework for building wealth, and why mindset comes before tacticsGot a question for the show?
