Giving and Discretionary Spending – Episode 487

Giving back is an important part of living a prosperous life, and there are many ways to do it. One way is to save up for an emergency fund or an opportunity fund. This money can be used to help others in need or to invest in something that will improve someone’s life.

In today’s episode, Spencer Shaw and Kim Butler discuss the importance of taking vacations and spending time doing things that you enjoy, rather than working all the time. They talk about how retirement is a social construct that doesn’t really benefit anyone, and how you should save and spend your money based on your own values rather than what others around you are doing. Kim also shares the principle of giving first and explains how this can help people get unstuck and achieve their goals. She mentions how giving is an ongoing process, and how it takes daily work to maintain a give-first mentality.
