Hello, Wineabbers. My name is Jesse Meekham with another episode of the

Wineab Podcast where we teach you four rules to help you spend, save, and give joyfully without guilt or second guessing.

What we're really talking about, and I've been kind of kicking this around a little bit,

is, uh, I think it, the rules rules are just we've talked about this we've talked about how they're just decision frame it's a decision framework it's there just ways to improve your decision making and specifically how you spend and we've talked about how

all spending is spending there's no such thing as saving you're just you know a friend of mine

said you're just you know he saved for retirement and retired kind of early and

people are like well what are you going to use the money for and he's like I already

did I bought my freedom you know so just sits there continually purchasing

his freedom so that could be one way that savings

are really just spending.

Other people sometimes say, oh, well, I spent it on stocks,

I spent it on retirement things like that that works also

What we what I want to talk about today though if if you've got the four rules that are really about

Improving your spending decisions. Rule one is introducing scarcity or trade-offs so that the trade-offs can that feeling of

trade-offs is what will improve your decision-making.

And then rule two, embracing your true expenses is really just future orienting

so that your decision-making improves.

And then rule three, rolling with the punches,

is just flexibility.

It's, you know, if you allow in your decision making

to be more flexible, you will make better decisions. You're not not you're not set in stone you're not

required to be clairvoyant you're not required to get that magic gate ball
