Episode 50: Two Sides of the Money Equation

Christopher Tan

“Focusing on the correct side of your money equation will help you not only be financially successful, but also help you finish well in life.”

In this episode, I will elaborate both sides of the money equation – left for short-term financial planning decisions and right for long-term investment decisions – and my views on the YOLO and FIRE ideologies.

Important note: Spend more time on the left side of the money equation instead of the right side.
