About this episode

This episode explores the DIYer, Partner, and Delegator framework in financial decision-making.

I cut my own grass every week. I don't mind it — it's mindless, it's outside, I like the hour. Plenty of people I know, just as busy and just as capable, pay someone else to do theirs. Neither one of us is wrong. We just decided differently about where we want to spend that hour. Turns out we all make that same call, constantly, in every part of our lives — we just never name it out loud. This episode names it: the DIYer , the Partner , and the Delegator , and the honest question of which one you actually are when it comes to your money. "My job was never to know something you couldn't Google. My job is to make sure the right thing happens even on the day you don't feel like doing it." What You'll Learn This episode breaks down the DIYer / Partner / Delegator framework and applies it directly to your money — using ideas borrowed from Bill Bachrach's values-based financial planning and the "Who Not How" mindset from Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy.
