  • Ep 5 | The Key to Saving Money (It’s Not Budgeting)
    Feb 13 2025

    In this episode of The F Word, Priya Malani discusses the shortcomings of traditional budgeting and introduces a new approach called the reverse budget. She emphasizes that budgeting often leads to stress and failure, particularly for high earners who struggle to save despite making good money. Instead of micromanaging expenses, Priya advocates for a system where individuals save first for specific goals and then spend the remainder of their income guilt-free. This method not only simplifies saving but also aligns spending with personal financial goals, allowing for a more enjoyable financial experience.

    • Why traditional budgeting sets you up to fail—and what to do instead.

    • Why high earners still feel financially insecure—and how to fix it.

    • The trick to automating savings so you actually hit your goals.

    • How to stop second-guessing every purchase and start enjoying your money.
