Fear & Greed is proud to share an episode of our sister podcast - How Do They Afford That? - out every Wednesday, wherever you get your podcasts.

We often talk about the need to spend less. But today we're looking at the other side of the equation. Because sometimes the smartest financial decision isn't spending less money. It's spending money in the right place. Join Canna Campbell - a financial planner for 20 years - and Fear & Greed's Michael Thompson as they look at ten purchases that can actually save you money over the long run.

Canna and Michael have written a book! Twelve Months to Financial Freedom will hit the shelves on September 1 - but you can preorder your copy right now.
