Welcome back to the Investing for Freedom Podcast. “Work hard and become a leader, be lazy and become a slave”. This quote is one I love, because it’s so simple but it’s so true. There will always be things we don’t want to do, but at times we just need to put our wants aside and put in the hard work. Today I challenge you to reflect inwards and see if there is any areas of your life where you’ve become a slave to your laziness, and then to free yourself from your shackles.

Unearth the ultimate obstacle standing between you and your financial aspirations. It’s Diderot effect, this principle says that spending can easily spiral into a relentless cycle of consuming more, often beyond your means.
But wait, let's get one thing straight! The message here isn't to stop spending entirely. Of course not! We believe that the joy of investing stems from the ability to afford the luxuries of life, the enriching experiences, and quality moments with loved ones. What we're emphasizing is the importance of maintaining a mindful balance, to prevent expenses from snowballing out of control.
Take a step today: challenge yourself and your partner, if you have one, to undertake a reflective examination of your spending patterns. Is your expenditure tipping overboard? If so, it's time to make some adjustments and commit to a leaner, more sustainable approach.

Today I am talking about the US debt, GDP, economy at large, and some of the downsides and upsides myself and others see with how things are going. The GDP has gone up, but the debt has also gone up, as well as the US budget deficit. What does this all mean? We are going through some of this data today from Zero Hedge, and talking about what we as investors can do to put ourselves in a position to thrive and succeed amongst all of these issues we face. The sky isn’t falling, not yet at least.
And if you want to see the chart I’m referencing, check out the Zero Hedge GDP Chart.
