It's always fun to get a little philosophical when you talk about budgeting
because it is like at the heart of all money questions, I think.
I agree.
I feel we concentrate too much on the dollars and we forget there's a human being with feelings behind it.
You're listening to Life Kit.
I'm Mariel Cigarra.
And that was certified financial planner Tanya P. Brown.
When Tanya gives financial advice, she often comes back to an acronym.
SWAN.
S-W-A-N.
Meaning sleep well at night.
Because she says the best money choice isn't necessarily the one that optimizes your savings
or your future earning potential.
It's the decision that makes you feel safe, and it's the one that's aligned with your values.
Keep that in mind as we have this conversation about savings buckets.
