And, you know, even little things in that regard, we've also been able-bodied.
We've had a good, you know, somewhat stable home environment and
Things that led us to go out and change that I'm at, I probably wouldn't do if I was in survival mode.
And so to compare that with maybe someone else's life who is actually just trying to get by and is doing so well for themselves because they've taken strides and leaps from where they've started.
But to compare like that life to maybe the one that someone else has would be so unfair.
Unless we live the exact same life, there's probably no point comparing.
I would say the biggest money myth that I want to bust, which is actually, I guess, preaching to the choir, because I know your audience are very well-versed in this, but it's that money is not hard.
And learning how to invest and learning how to talk about money, learning how to set up your super and put together a portfolio, these aren't things that are difficult.
These are just things that we...
grow up feeling like it's not for us so we you are putting away a little bit towards an emergency fund and you're overall just like on top of a few things here and there and you have somewhat of a budget and you have some insurances set up you're actually doing really really really well but we make ourselves think that you know god we could be doing so much better
Yeah, the analysis paralysis is a killer.
In dealing with analysis paralysis, I think what works for me is this like one saying that I tell myself and it's that someone who's probably not as smart as you is just braver than you and they're going out and doing it and they're achieving what they're after.
And sometimes it does take a lot out of very intelligent people to get themselves out of their head because we want to overanalyze.
So if you are overthinking anything,
investing or overthinking you know where to put your money or your budget plan just means you're a very smart person you're trying to look at all of the risks associated but someone else that may have you know can I say this a few less brain cells than you they're going let me just try it
And at the end of the day, them trying means they will try and fail and learn and get better.
And they'll probably end up doing really well for themselves because they're taking steps and learning on the go.
And one of my faults is that I want to understand everything before I put my foot in or dip my toe in.
And that always isn't the best way of going about things.
Oh, I love that.
