Almost every time I open a social media app, I see content about budgeting or how to control everyday spending.
But in this talk, procurement expert Wolfgang Schnellbacher flips the script on money habits and shares why, for him, everyday spending is actually one of the most powerful and overlooked skills we have in our toolbox.
Drawing on lessons learned from elite corporate buyers and personal scenarios, he tells us three deceptively simple rules that can turn our routine purchases into smarter, more intentional decisions.
That was Wolfgang Schnellbacher at TED at BCG in Dubai in 2025.

I'm Elise Hugh.
I'll be back tomorrow with a fresh idea for your feed.
Thanks for listening.
TED's flagship conference is where ideas move from the stage into the world.
Coming up this April 13th through 17th in Vancouver, TED 2026 will bring together global leaders and innovators for five days of perspective-shifting talks, immersive experiences, and meaningful connection.
As an ongoing attendee myself, I can attest to this conference being more transformational than many others, not just for what you hear on stage, but for the conversations you
and relationships that happen beyond it.
Attending TED goes far beyond watching talks.
It's about access, community, and being part of a global network committed to shaping the future.
