You work hard, you earn well, and you deserve to enjoy the finer things in life. But do you ever feel like you’re spending more than you can afford, and struggling to save for the future? If so, you’re not alone. According to a survey by Nielsen, 25% of American families making $150,000 or more are living paycheck to paycheck. That means they have little or no savings and are vulnerable to financial emergencies.
Why are high earners in this predicament?
One of the main reasons why high earners fall into this trap is lifestyle inflation. This is when you increase your spending as your income rises, and you get used to a higher standard of living. You may upgrade your car, your house, your clothes, your vacations, and your hobbies. You may also feel pressured to keep up with your peers, who seem to have it all. But the problem is, the more you spend, the more you need to earn, and the harder it is to save. You may end up working longer hours, taking on more stress, and sacrificing your health and happiness.
How can you break free from this cycle?
So how can you break free from this cycle of overspending and under-saving? How can you achieve financial freedom and peace of mind? The answer is financial coaching.
Financial coaching is a personalized service that helps you create and implement a realistic and sustainable plan for your money. Your Coach helps you identify your goals, your values, and your priorities. It teaches you how you can track your income and expenses and find ways to reduce your debt and increase your savings. It provides you with the tools to overcome your emotional and behavioral barriers to financial success. And it helps you stay accountable and motivated to achieve your desired outcomes.
Benefits
One of the benefits of financial coaching is that it is tailored to your specific needs and circumstances. Unlike generic financial advice, financial coaching takes into account your income level, your lifestyle, your challenges, and your opportunities. It helps you find the balance between enjoying your present and securing your future while you align your spending with your values, and your savings with your goals. You learn to make smart and confident decisions about your money and avoid costly mistakes.
