Scale the Business, Not the Bills| Bread & Butter Podcast - Ep 87

Most people ask “When do I finally enjoy?” We argue you can enjoy now, without wrecking the plan. In this episode we break down seasons of graft (9–12 months), the difference between a one-off treat and an ongoing liability, and why the richer you get, the stricter your guardrails must become. From upgrading a flight as a one-off to saying no to the shiny monthly E-Class payment, we show you how to design enjoyment that doesn’t sabotage momentum. We also get real about delegation (quality dips before it compounds), compliance and insurance as you scale, and building a life where your income fits your lifestyle goals,  not the other way around. You’ll hear how we manage family-first spending (birthdays planned in advance, school shop days, cinema mornings), why we love time-zone arbitrage (Dubai mornings + UK clients = head start), and how we “industrialise” good habits (home gym, early barbers, calendar blocks). We talk practical finance too: fund the car/holiday from a new income stream, not your main pot; if a car is ~£400/mth, build £100/week first. Plus: values-led money moves (BYD vs Benz, selling Tesla shares), and the mindset shift that keeps your lifestyle from creeping while the business grows. Highlights One-off vs monthly: enjoy in bursts, not bills Seasons of graft: give it 9–12 months of focused work Compliance mindset: more profit = tighter guardrails Delegation & scale: accept the dip to earn the compounding Lifestyle by design: earn in pounds, live where suits you Family-first enjoyment: memories that compound The seeds → crops framework: plant income, spend harvest Subscribe, share, and join the Patreon for ad-free episodes, early drops, and live sessions with Tayo & Eman. 🎧 Tap in now, and don’t forget to Like, Share & Subscribe!
