043 - How to Avoid Lifestyle Creep
Fri Jan 23 2026
Although “financial lifestyle creep” might sound like a lost verse to a Radiohead hit, that’s not actually what we’re talking about on this episode. Shareholder and CPA, Kayce Gerlach, and senior associate and CPA, Shay Casey, offer some solid, not-preachy advice about how to avoid the trap of spending more just because you make more. They talk about how lifestyle creep happens, how to spot it, how to decide what things you should spend money on, and why a Walmart Plus subscription is totally worth it (we’re not even sponsored!) Even if you’re not a creep or a weirdo, this episode’s packed with good ideas and insights. So, listen in to learn more!
