I want to share a provocative philosophy with you.

I’ve been really inspired by a book I listened to called ‘Die with Zero’, by Bill Perkins.

On the surface, it’s all about aiming to die with zero pounds (or dollars) in the bank. Now I appreciate this sounds quite drastic, and possibly a bit mad, but the deep premise behind Perkins’ philosophy is about aiming to consciously get the utmost out of the life that we have.

He challenges us to really think about our death – something most of us do a great job of avoiding - and work backwards, considering how to get the most out of our money and our life, rather than putting things off for some far-flung time in the future, or our retirement.

It blends eye-opening insights about time, money, and happiness from a psychological science and behavioural finance perspective, and it makes a timely, convincing, and contrarian case for living large.

Intrigued? Honestly, this stuff is fascinating. Join me in this episode as I get into it with you!
