Listen "Stock Talk - Ep 76 - Personal finance porn"
Episode Synopsis
Our journey to achieving important financial goals like retirement or buying a house have traditionally been long treks. In recent years we've been seeing more people who aren't interesting running that marathon but would prefer to sprint to the finish line and achieve FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) or other personal finance goals like paying off their mortgage in 5 years, or engaging in multi-year spending moratoriums. These types of extreme personal finance behaviours make great copy and get a lot of clicks and attention. They also create emotional feelings no different than someone who feels inadequate or has a bad body image because of images the media projects on us what norms we should be aspiring to do. In this episode, Aman offers some takes on this type of personal finance "porn" can while inspiring, can give most people a feeling of bad "personal finance image".
