ADHD + Money: How much is FOMO costing you? (Ep 78)
Description
In this episode of the Mind & Money Podcast, Sherry (Financial Coach) and Val (Financial Planner) dig into one of the sneakiest reasons people overspend: comparison and pressure to upgrade.
From trading in a perfectly good car because a dealer makes the numbers look the same, to buying the latest tech gadget because friends just upgraded, we break down how these decisions can quietly drain your wealth.
We talk about:
Why wealthy people often don’t upgrade their homes and cars.
The truth behind dealership “we’ll keep your payment the same” offers.
How FOMO and social media fuel money stress.
The power of pausing, asking “why,” and choosing based on YOUR values.
Simple ways to feel content with what you already have — and still hit your big financial goals.
If you’ve ever felt pulled to upgrade, buy, or invest because of outside pressure, this episode is your permission slip to run your own race.
