1137 | Judgement of Other People's Spending

Isn’t it easy to judge how others spend their money? In this episode, Carl explores the tendency we have to make quick judgments about people's financial decisions—whether it's a fancy car, an expensive truck, or even rocks for a garden. Have you ever found yourself silently critiquing someone's spending, only to later realize you don’t know the full story? Carl shares examples, including a friend who spent money on expensive adventures during a difficult time in his life, explaining how those trips were actually helping him survive. What if, instead of judging, we paused to consider the story behind the spending? Carl suggests that by shifting from judgment to empathy, we might better understand others—and ourselves.
