Prioritize Time-Bound Goals
- Prioritize time-bound goals like family and children over money-bound goals to manage stress and balance life phases effectively.
- Recognize that money goals can be delayed but you cannot reclaim lost time with your family or during key life stages.
Analyze Opportunity Costs
- Assess the opportunity costs of your time to decide if activities like credit card hacking or income growth efforts are worthwhile.
- Focus on increasing income if possible, as the returns typically outweigh the time spent on side hustles like points and miles.

- Use this phase to enjoy family time and prepare for more intense money goals when life phases change.
