Don't let DESIRE determine how financially comfortable you are, with Jenny Josling

  • Summary

  • In this fourth episode, financial educator and author Vanessa Stoykov details the way DESIRE contributes to how financially comfortable we are - both now and later in life. 


    Vanessa is joined by Jenny Josling to dive deep into the lessons learned from fictional characters pulled from Vanessa’s finance novel ‘The Breakfast Club for 40-somethings.’ 


    What you will learn in this episode:


    • How desire is a treadmill, not a cul de sac.  We can get caught up in the chase without realising we’re picking up the pace. 
    • When high-net-worth individuals like Josie get trapped by desire - needing to go to upmarket hotels and travel business class because they think that’s what’s expected of them. 
    • Running your own business can put you in maximum control - and also at maximum risk.  
    • The direction and insight a financial planner can offer at any income level. 


    Quotes 

    ‘Desire pulls us forward, and fuels our ambition. But unchecked desire can come at a heavy price, dragging us in to pay for it all.’ 


    ‘But while she can do everything, she can't do everything all the time.’
