These lessons have helped us reframe our relationship with money and build sustainable spending habits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Marina Khidekel, Chief Content Officer at Thrive Global<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of us get uncomfortable when talking about our finances, but the truth is, when we share the tips that have helped us feel less stressed and more in control of our money, we help each other build habits that support our well-being in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We asked our Thrive community to share with us the underrated and unexpected pieces of advice that changed their perspective around money. Which of these lessons resonates with you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not what you make, it\u2019s what you save.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe most underrated piece of financial advice I heard came from my hard-working immigrant grandmother. She said, \u2018It\u2019s not what you make, it\u2019s what you save.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014A. McGovern, writer, San Francisco, CA<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cConsider the total cost of ownership.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe best money advice I received was from my parents. They encouraged me to think about the \u2018total cost of ownership.\u2019 The cost of buying a house isn\u2019t just the mortgage \u2014 it\u2019s insurance, maintenance, interests, furnishings, and utilities. The total cost of taking a new job could include more gas for the commute, parking fees, higher clothing expenses, longer and day care hours. To make the smartest decisions, we have to consider the full financial impacts of our decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Donna Peters, executive coach and podcast host, Atlanta, GA<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMake a business case for your purchases.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I started my business, I heard another entrepreneur say, \u2018You need to make a case for anything you purchase.\u2019 So no matter what I buy, rather it is something that is five dollars or five thousand dollars, I pause and make a business case for it. Taking this pause has stopped me from making some poor money choices, and has elevated other ones.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Kristin Meekhof, author and life coach, Royal Oak, MI<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThink of every dollar spent as a trade-off.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy \u2018eureka\u2019 money moment came during my childhood when my father told me to think of every dollar you spend as a trade-off for something you want. I had wanted to get some food at the mall food court even though I didn\u2019t really need it. He said that I could do that, but since I really didn\u2019t need it, think of it as $7 I could put towards the new sneakers I really wanted. And if I did it a few more times, the sneakers would be mine sooner than I thought. From that day forward, I began to think about the cost of the thing I didn\u2019t need and how much closer it got me to what I wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Scott Miller, marketing director, Wilmington, DE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMaterial items don\u2019t bring lasting happiness.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I was younger, I learned that we all have a baseline level of happiness, and when we open our wallets and give into wants and desires, we receive a short burst of joy due to the release of dopamine. Then, shortly after the purchase, we are right back where we started. Our life doesn\u2019t change, as our happiness is not dependent on material things. Instead, it\u2019s important that we can express gratitude for the gifts in life such as health, family, and friends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014James Petrossi, president of PTNL, Austin, TX<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPut extra money into a savings account right away.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I was working in my first job, my friend gave me a piece of advice that her dad had given to her, and I\u2019ve never forgotten it: \u2018Every time you get a pay rise, put that extra money into a savings account as you\u2019ll never have had it, so won\u2019t miss it.\u2019 I followed that advice and was able to buy my first car and first house before most of my peers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014LH, consultant, London, England, U.K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMoney comes and goes.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter my beloved husband died, I felt very anxious about money as I had just dropped to part-time status at work. I mentioned my concerns to one of my work colleagues and he said something I\u2019ve always remembered: \u2018Money comes and money goes.\u2019 It\u2019s been almost 14 years since he died, and I\u2019ve had both lean and ample times financially. During the lean times, I just recall this phrase and remember that like emotions, the experience of money is impermanent. Money is not a fixed commodity but rather something that fluctuates with seasons in our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Sherry Cormier, Ph.D., bereavement trauma specialist, Annapolis, MD<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFind joy in what you choose to spend on.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy most impactful financial advice came from my parents and how I saw them live and enjoy money. Although they did not have much, as we migrated from Cuba to the US when I was seven years old, they lived their best life within their means. I never heard them complain about how difficult it was to be an immigrant or wishing they had more money. Being responsible and saving is important to me, but it is essential to enjoy our money on the things that bring us happiness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
