Festive spending with Ryan Watson

It’s the most wonderful time of the year again – the festive season. Although you can also call it the spending season; with the likes of Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and countless other sales making it far more easier to give, give and keep on giving. And that’s not even talking about fitting in all the family and work celebrations.

So how do you keep your spending from blowing out so the only thing you have to worry about on Christmas Day is getting that nap in on the couch after eating way to much at lunch!  

Answering this Christmas conundrum is our co-host Ryan Watson, who digs deep into his bag of festive spending tips help us all out. Tips like setting realistic financial goals at the outset, considering experience gifts such as cooking a special meal or babysitting, providing a meaningful donation instead of an item (that also has the added benefit of a tax deduction), or looking at family-wide agreements like Kris Kringle for adults or kids-only gift giving. 

By putting some of these great insights into action, you’ll be able to have your (Christmas) cake and eat it too knowing your spending is under control and you can fully enjoy everything this time of year brings. 

Here’s to your Good Life. And thanks for listening.
