Marcus has an epiphany: "You can spend less money than you make or make more money than you spend." What does that even mean?!!? Well, in the game of Paychecks & Balances you can work harder or you can work smarter. In this week's Money Minute we discuss why most people are more interested in how they can make more money versus cut back on where they spend. Why? Because cutting back on the lifestyle we've become accustomed to sucks! We get it! But, keeping it really reals? It might be easier to save money than make more money. On this week's Main Segment, we highlight an article from Quartz about why you shouldn't rush to quit your day job to pursue your dreams, as told by someone who quit their day job to pursue their dreams. So if happiness isn't found at the 9 to 5 and happiness isn't found in pursuing your dreams...where does happiness hide? We're glad you asked. That's why we spend the second half of the show discussing how to locate the sweet spot between your dreams, hobbies, day job while still making a livable income.
