What things do you do to hack your life together so you can be emotionally wealthy?
I had a great conversation with someone today about how they bring in other services into their life so that they can grow their emotional wealth and financial wealth concurrently. They have become self aware to know what really matters in their life. So as a CEO & mother of 3 with a very supportive and also working husband, they spend their money in different ways than other families. They hired an au pair for the baby. They have a night sitter on a regular basis. They have pre-made meals delivered home, if she is out of town. She also leaves time for herself and the kids on a regular basis and may even not take on extra clients if it will take away from the home life. They also spend money to travel together and spend time as a family. They don't spend money on the latest things (cars, houses etc). It is about experiences and a lifestyle that works for them.
When I was in corporate I used to live in a Penthouse in Downtown Dallas (that cost less than my 1 bedroom apartment previously in San Francisco). Every one would think I had it made and I did. It was my biggest cost but it gave me so much joy to wake up and be in a very open apartment with large windows over the city. I also didn't spend money on a car and used public transportation and eventually Uber when it came out to Dallas. I spent my money on experiences with friends (life family), travel for interesting conferences and investing in development growth for myself. I hacked my spending the way I wanted to based on my inner core.
