Money doesn’t buy happiness. I firmly believe that. But, I also believe that money buys you options…and having the option is what breeds happiness.
Having the option to take a trip, bless a family member, leave your job, start a family, and so much more. Money makes those things easier.
Money allows you to have more and more options.
Now, while I don’t think money buys happiness, I do think there are certain things you can spend your money on and feel genuinely fulfilled.
In this episode, I’m sharing a few intentional spending ideas that will leave you feeling fulfilled and happy as a clam!
Let me add that you may not be in a position to spend your money on these things now, but definitely keep them in your back pocket for the future.
Here’s a glance at this episode:
- [02:10] There are so many ways you can donate, and it doesn’t have to just be money. This can leave you feeling incredibly fulfilled.
