Why Your Money Disappears (And The Fix That Actually Works)
A woman had it all figured out: good income, mortgage-free, the trust paid off the house.
So where’s the money she used to put on the mortgage going? “Honestly, we just spend it.”
In this episode, Ed and Andrew explain why even high earners can’t find money to invest and the one fix that reliably works. You’ll learn:
- Why your money gets absorbed, not wasted
- The “commitment device” that forces you to save without willpower
- Why a mortgage top-up is temporary and what it can turn into
The takeaway? The hardest part of investing isn’t the maths. It’s removing your own ability to change your mind.
