Welcome to the Season 2 Finale episode of Nitch Radio. It’s fair to say 2020 has been a year like no other for the world. The year brought significant challenges to everyone. But among all the challenges there have also been many things worth celebrating. For me, it was also a time for growth, learning, and restructuring.
With a title like “The Psychology of Money,” you might expect the material within to be dense and heavy. However, the book is extremely approachable and digestible.
If you really care about growing your net worth, investing and making important decisions in your life (why wouldn’t you?), I really recommend this book. It will transform what you think about money and life. Below are a few big ideas from the book. Enjoy!
Go out of your way to find humility when things are going right and forgiveness/compassion when they go wrong. Because it’s never as good or as bad as it looks. The world is big and complex. Luck and risk are both real and hard to identify. Do so when judging both yourself and others.
Less ego, more wealth. Saving money is the gap between your ego and your income, and wealth is what you don’t see. So wealth is created by suppressing what you could buy today in order to have more stuff or more options in the future. No matter how much you earn, you will never build wealth unless you can put a lid on how much fun you can have with your money right now, today.
Excerpt From: Morgan Housel. “The Psychology of Money: Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Greed, and Happiness.”

Nitch Radio – Personal & Professional Development Podcast. Season 2, Episode 02: 5 Time Management Principles That Actually Put You In Control of Your Time.

This is the most simple and basic component of life: our struggles determine our successes. So choose your struggles wisely, my friend.
Deep Work: Professional activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration that push your cognitive capabilities to their limit. These efforts create new value, improve your skill, and are hard to replicate.
Shallow Work: Non-cognitively demanding, logistical-style tasks, often performed while distracted. These efforts tend not to create much new value in the world and are easy to replicate.
(2) Core Abilities For Thriving in Today’s Economy:
- The ability to master hard things quickly
- The ability to produce at an elite level, in terms of both quality and speed
“I build my days around a core of carefully chosen deep work, with the shallow activities I absolutely cannot avoid batched into smaller bursts at the peripheries of my schedule. Three to four hours a day, five days a week, of uninterrupted and carefully directed concentration, it turns out, can produce a lot of valuable output.” – Cal Newport

In this episode, I share a few practical tips and resources that can help anyone get started in the right direction toward wealth creation and personal finance. Enjoy!
