In this thought-provoking episode, David and Jalen unpack the hidden costs of a scarcity mindset and why “being cheap” can actually set you back financially. They dive deep into the psychology of wealth, exploring how our environment, upbringing, and the language we use around money shape our financial identity.
From breaking generational money habits to practical strategies for improving credit, this episode offers both mindset shifts and actionable game. The hosts also challenge the idea that saving alone builds wealth—emphasizing the importance of self-investment, calculated risk-taking, and shifting from fear to abundance.
